World Naked Bike Ride Manchester

Join Outdoorlads and 100s of other cyclists on the annual World Naked Bike Ride (WNBR) in Manchester. It's a worthy, free, fun,  legal event, run by volunteers with the aim of making the world a better place for everyone.

We'll meet at 6.30pm, ready to join the ride round the city centre which starts around 7.00pm and takes about 90 minutes at a very gentle pace.

Cleaner environment, safer roads, healthier lifestyles, better attitudes

The ride demonstrates the vulnerability of cyclists while celebrating body freedom and is a protest against fossil fuels and car culture. 

Bare as you dare

• As it's a "naked" ride, clothing is optional. OutdoorLads requires you to wear a helmet and suitable footwear (trainers / cycling shoes)
• There is no pressure to be completely naked. The event has a carnival feel, so you are encouraged to adorn yourself with colourful body paint and slogans, wear fancy dress, disguise yourself a bit (eg sunglasses, helmet, mask) or remain partially dressed – be as bare as you dare. 
• Many passers by and photographers who know about the event will take photographs before the event begins and along the route. There will be lots of people with cameras and phones. If you're at all uncomfortable with appearing naked in photos, you're welcome to wear shorts, speedos, etc.
