World Naked Bike Ride Cycles Into Saint Louis This Summer
The first ever Saint Louis World Naked Bike Ride will launch later this summer on Saturday August 2 at 9 pm, departing from Tower Grove Park’s Pool Pavilion (near Magnolia Ave and Tower Grove Ave).
The World Naked Bike Ride is an international event protesting oil dependency, promoting positive body image, and raising cyclist awareness. The bike ride’s dress code is “bare as you dare,” so all participants are welcome whether fully clothed, covered in body paint, or completely bare. It has been successful in various other cities such as nearby Chicago, though this is the first summer it will take place in Saint Louis. The Saint Louis event will have some pre-ride body painting at 7 pm.
Indecent Exposure to Cars: The History of the World Naked Bike Ride
Come join us watch the documentary about the World Naked Bike Ride and get pumped up for the first ever Saint Louis WNBR event on August 2. Delicious baked goods will be available. Donations of $1-2 from cyclists/walkers, $3-5 from drivers, or body paint are requested. The film screening will take place at the Community Arts and Media Project (CAMP) on 3022A Cherokee St.
