WNBR 2015

While reluctant to breakup the impressive flow of WNBR pictures, I feel an obligation to defend New York's image.

Just having a lot of people in your city doesn't cut it. For nude events, demographics truly are destiny, and NYC just doesn't have very "nude friendly" demographics.

I am curious as to what "nude friendly" demographics might be? The NYC WNBR touches two boroughs Manhattan,and Brooklyn, both have a high percentage of young singles in the 18-35 bracket. Certainly within that large group there are hundreds of thousands with demographic and other characteristics similar to the kinds of people we see riding in WNBR events in cities like London, or nearby Philly.

On any summer weekend, you can catch the packed Seastreak ferry from either Brooklyn, or lower Manhattan to the Sandy Hook beaches in New Jersey, including the famous clothing optional Gunnison Beach. The boat is always loaded with New Yorkers headed for a fully nude day in both public and the sun. It doesn't get much more "nude friendly" than that.

NYC is known for being one of the least friendly cities in the US and Europe for bikers in general. If you are not comfortable riding around fully clothed, you won't be comfortable doing it naked either.

Actually, the bicycle friendliness of the city has changed substantially in recent years. There are dedicated, and separated bike paths and greenways, and lots of dedicate bike lanes throughout the city. (check online maps )

Like London, NYC has a bank sponsored bike rental program that offers more than 6,000 bikes at a time. Its riders racked up almost two-million miles in just the month of May alone.

I don't know the route they used this year, but the WNBR usually starts out in the neighborhood of Williamsburg Brooklyn, which on a Saturday afternoon has a large chuck of its population, who are Jewish Hasidim, off the streets and observing the Sabbath. They then took a dedicated bike path over the bridge and into Manhattan, and headed downtown to the financial district which is relatively deserted on weekends. I also remember them taking a dedicated bike path uptown from there. The point being they wouldn't be encountering the nasty NYC car and taxi traffic most of the ride.

Looking at the big picture, it seems to me that the WNBR is doing well in places where it is legal to ride fully nude, and not doing so well elsewhere. The courts in Portland say its a legal tradition to ride nude, there is no law against it in London. In Toronto, I'm told, you technically have to, at least, be wearing shoes to make it legal. But, in other US cities, and in continental Europe, the police "could" arrest nude riders if they ever decided to. I suspect a lot of people just don't want to take that risk, even if the police have, so far, been looking the other way. Last year's two arrests in the NYC WNBR may have discouraged some potential riders from participating this year, and they found something else fun to do on a Saturday afternoon. Could be they took the ferry to a fully legal nude day at Gunnison Beach instead.

It must be a sad year because all Vancouver has to offer is some low quality instagram photos and a blurry youtube video: youtube.com/watch?v=TjeZChRV5ZM

There are a lot of factors at play, but the key ingredients seem to be a) a progressive, tolerant populous, b) a progressive, tolerant city administration, c) a local tradition of alternative influences stretching the boundaries, d) an inherent empathy with the three main causes (body/artistic freedom, greener cities, cycle safety), and perhaps e) lack of a vocal, motivated, influential opposition.

New York scores on some of these but not so much on others. There are bohemians (as in most cities) but they don't really have any power or influence. And there are some very conservative, traditionalist elements, who have lots.

Apparently they had a good turnout of riders (at least 500), and lots of photographers around too. But it looks like very few pics are actually being uploaded this year

This is all I could find:

crappy timelapse video showing how many people there were, but not really much too look at - youtu.be/DU1ZNAhZ4S0

Unfortunately I couldn't make it out to view the ride this year, but I was really hoping there'd be more pics, especially of this milf. I know who she is, so it's a real thrill when I see pics of her

If any of you fine folk have more pics of the Vancouver ride and/or of her, I'd love to see it!

For reference, she is Irishboy's fave milf of years past:
