Report on Adelaide 2011 World Nude Bike Ride

On March 12th, nude cyclists joined the worldwide movement for peace, sane transport and cyclists rights by cycling through Adelaide. After meeting up in Vic Square, we made off for the Secret HQ and got stripped down and painted up. I think I speak for everyone when I say, this was some serious, hardcore fun. Slogans from ranged from "I heart Cycling" to "C ME NOW?".

We headed through ALL Adelaide's most densely populated streets, ensuring plenty of exposure. This included some on the fly organizing, which ended in photographers waiting for us out the front of the Advertiser building.

We picked up a few extra troops along the way. Including for me, a personal highlight, a shirtless man on a HUGE unicycle. Wicked.

Just as we started heading home, grins on full blare, the fuzz drove by. This was... inevitable. So really it couldn't have been better timed and they were extremely respectful, treating us like peaceful protesters, not naked ruffians.

Once back at HQ, we re-clothed and a few of us went of to a nearby pub and grabbed a beer or two, just enjoying the high.
And that my friends, is the sum of all!

If you couldn't make it this year, all good, hope to see you next year!

If you did make it this year, hope to see you AGAIN next year and thanks for making it an incredible day!
