The 1st picture is from the 2013 WNBR in Portland, Oregon (USA). It's from inside the Portland museum where you paid $1 entrance for each piece of clothing you were wearing. As you can see, it was Free for many ;-)

I've been chatting to some fellow WNBR riders and they are furious and disappointed that their images are ending up on sites like this as it's not in the spirit of the ride at all. I applaud Brighton for having a fenced off area for riders to get ready.

A few years ago, I purchased the official "World naked bike ride" book by Conrad Schmitt, one of the original organizers of the WNBR. In that book he states explicitly that the purpose of the nudity is mainly to draw media attention to their cause. I would definately urge all participants in the WNBR to read this book! And I doubt very seriously that any ride organizer today would deny that pics from the ride have the potential to wind up on sites like OCC. If you ask them beforehand, they will tell you. Its as simple as that. No one need be furious and disappointed because of their own preconceptions of what the ride is all about. This has been going on for almost ten years now.

That said, I do realize there are still a lot of concerns out there. Not all photographers honor the fragile relationship between riders and cameramen. But photographers ARE an important element of the WNBR experience as Conrad Schmitt has publicly admitted. The organizers WANT images to be publicly and freely available through the internet, and know that they cannot control exactly where they ultimately wind up.

OCC just funnels and concentrates these public images from around the net and makes it a bit easier for those that appreciate them to find them. But if this site was to suddenly disappear, most members would just go cruise other sources. The pics of you and your friends would still get viewed and commented on by people who you would perhaps rather not have see them. FLickr, for example, has many groups dedicated to WNBR images, as do other sites, and they are scarcely different in content than these threads here at OCC.

And if you really want to know - a great number of OCC members would probably be perfectly happy to see the OCC hardcore section go away. It does not define this site and never has.

EDIT: and now having wrote this - I'm wishing I hadn't. Mainly, thats because we should get on with the thread and not dwell on the negative. Hopefully, the discussion is closed and who knows but Fango might even chime in with an "amen".

i did take note of this, BTW

And as president of the International Association of Public Nudity Photographers and Admirers of Simple Innocent Female Nudity (an organization I just created five minutes ago), you can be my first charter member. Together, with the help of our official mouthpiece and internet reference source, OCC, I believe we can indeed change the world...

But just remember, before there was OCC, there was Getty Images

Anyway, here's two photos I found on a Facebook page. Best I could do

The good news is that they're trying to organize a second ride in July on account of not much word getting out beforehand.

This was the first group in the sea after the ride on Sunday. The girl in blue tried to insist that only people as naked as they were could take photos - some ignored but it was a good example of how naked photographers were much more welcomed than clothed ones. The same girl later took to throwing stones at anyone who pointed a camera in her direction without her permission - which was a great deterrent though offputting to anyone innocently passing by!

We probably thought you were joking when your first post sounded so negative - especially for a person that willingly joined a website that promotes (well trumpets) the fact that there are public nudity pictures contained herein. Since this was your first post ever - we'll give you the benefit of the doubt and hope that you enjoy what you see and contribute something yourself in the future.

***Oh - and the others were of course completely right about the fact that the 'N' in the WNBR was always meant to be a way to bring media and public attention to an event that wouldnt get more than 10 cameras or spectators or newstories if the 'N' didnt mean naked. Maybe the new riders are complaining about the publicity because they think the ride is self contained and meant to only benefit the few riders that are able to make it to the events - but that is not the case. The ride was created for publicity and by all accounts - it is highly successful.

Hi everyone,

fantastic posts, I'm very jealous I couldn't be over there to participate!

Anyone have any more of this girl? She seems to have been in both the Brighton and London events, even managing a change of shoes and glasses!! But the tattoo is a giveaway....
