The first World Naked Bike Ride (WNBR) was held in 2004, and in 2008 Danmark for the first time is on the WNBR World Map, that now covers 70 cities in 20 countries.

WNBR is pure nude joy of life on two wheels. For many of the participats it is just another fun ocation to some social nudity, with the spice of a nearly legal way of promoting uncerimonious nude life style. But WNBR actually has a sort of a political message. It is about pointing out the inappropriate in unnessecary burning of non-renewable fossile fuel in situations where the bicycle is a better means of transportation than the car. It is not a condemnation of the car, it is just a request to use the bicycle and other /imagesnon-polluting means of transportation in the city traffic.

The message is written in the sentence: "We protest aginst oil dependence and celebrate the power and individuality of our bodies".

The exact message varies from ride to ride as all rides are individual - it is just the idea and the concept that are mutual, and they are not owned by anybody.

The invitation the the Danish ride, which will be on the 7th of June 2008, sounds: "We cycle for more alternative sources of energy. We cycle to celebrate the individuality and power of our bodies. We cycle away from all prejudices and towards a more loving World. So come as bare as you dare".
