FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

WORLD NAKED BIKE RIDE

In the paramount clothes-free event since the dawn of the textile industry, on June 12th Chicagoans will be riding their bikes with the rest of the cycling-world as bare as they dare! This safe, free, natural & non-sexual ride will be leaving at 9 PM from Wicker Park. It will move peacefully through the neighborhoods of Chicago spreading fun, trust and love. Hundreds of people have already signed up for the ride, butt other rides hosted simultaneously in 22 other cities worldwide (including Vancouver, London, San Francisco, & Montreal) will make this event the worlds largest naked bike ride in history.

The message we are bringing is one of simplification and respect. The naked body is the common experience of all people, all of the time. It is the page we use to write our stories of life and death with. For a future to exist for tomorrow’s generations, we pledge to stop wasting the energy of the Earth, stop fighting wars in the name of that waste, and come to love all of humanity as one.

The World Naked Bike Ride is being organized democratically through on-line discussion groups. It is operated locally through the grassroots work of regular people who believe in changing the world through peace, love and conviction for a sustainable world.

The World Naked Bike Ride is endorsed by the following groups: Artists For Peace Body Freedom Collaboration. The Work Less Party The Nude Garden Party Car Busters International Naturist Association Shake Chicago D&D Mugs Chicago Bicycle Federation & Chicago’s Critical Mass!
