World Naked Bike Ride Helsinki – CyclOrbit

Every year on the last SATURDAY OF JULY, the HOTTEST day in Finland.

(This is the park where we start the ride in Helsinki)

Less Russian gas, more freedom and ass!

No more gas from Putin

The most extravagant Many-FIEST-Action of the year!

Start of Helsinki ride 2020 @ Varsapuistikko

The concept is simple

Once a year, on the hottest day of the summer, we do a naked bicycle tour around the city.

We want to get the town back from big motorized vehicles, shout(& sing) against pollution, cars, and hypocritical prudery.

While cycling the World, I will Organize, Participate and Promote this event, even in middle-east!

If you see that the site is not updated anymore, search for me. But don’t send any US-Army-Bombing, please.

Why?

the main “official” reasons/requests are two:

1) The ride is a manifestation against car culture, oil dependency, and pollution in general

2) Nudity is not enforced. The decision to go naked belongs entirely to the participants. It is up to individual participants to decide how much nudity they are comfortable with.

But the reason YOU do it may be infinite:

You love bicycles,

you love your city,

you want noiseless means of transport,

you don’t want so many DANGEROUS big/fast vehicles in the city,

you don’t like the oil industry & lobbying in general,

you wish to sensibilize drivers to mind & respect bikes,

…and because you may be an exhibitionist!
