WNBR 2026
 

March is right around the corner... Which means WNBR season approaches :)

Portland dropped the date of their ride on Instagram this week:

Byron Bay Bike Ride is next weekend. Hopefully the weather is nice.

Yes ... From the city's tourism account (not the wnbr people 😁)

Cape Town cancelled
 

The Cape Town version has been cancelled: capetownetc.com/news/cape-town-cancels-world-naked-bike-ride-following-backlash

The article doesn't exactly make clear what the 'backlash' is, but seemingly the authorities have not given permission for it to go ahead unless there is no nudity, which sort of defies the point.

2026 season
 

Whilst the optimist in me hopes that the new Fli©kr safe search rules may revive WNBR threads here, as those who sign up to paid accounts share images here, the pessimist thinks that the opposite will be true- the new rules will decimate adult content and these threads will further decline. :(

That said, I'll be signing up to a Fli©kr subscription in June-July and happy to post what I find here. Here's an intial list of the UK rides this year- feel free to update if you know more...!

June/July/August
 

are the best months to ride naked in the Northern Hemisphere. Not surprised the Portland ride is in July.

Brighton has been postponed, apparently. No great loss, if true. This was once up there as among the very best of these events.

Anyone know what Yorks like, I will be around there that week?
