The streets of Burlington recently became the canvas for the “World Naked Bike Ride” (WNBR) spectacle. This wasn’t just any ordinary bike ride; it was a statement, a movement, a global call to action. With over 50 riders baring it all, the WNBR in Burlington was a sight to behold, all in the name of challenging the Global Car Culture and our dependency on oil.
The World Naked Bike Ride isn’t just a Burlington thing. It’s a global movement with riders in over 20 countries and events in 70 cities worldwide. Imagine that – thousands of riders worldwide, all united by a common cause (and a lack of clothing).
Among the various protests happening around the world, from calls for peace in conflict zones to broader global peace initiatives, the World Naked Bike Ride has a unique charm. It’s not just about the message; it’s about the way it’s delivered. With slogans like “Less Gas, More Ass” painted on participants, the message is clear, memorable, and delivered with a cheeky grin.
From a photographer’s lens, the World Naked Bike Ride offers a unique perspective. It’s not every day you get to add “nudes on bikes” to your portfolio. For those intrigued by the World Naked Bike Ride and thinking of joining or even starting a chapter in your city, I’d recommend checking out their official website to learn more about their mission and events.
