For the most part the naked cycling that has taken place has been mostly at naturist/nudist communities and resorts around the world. Small community festivals, less-traveled roads, mountain trails, and other remote outdoor areas have also been favorite places for those looking for peace and fresh air away from their hectic urban lives.

As streaking became popularized in 1974, more streakers reached for their bikes for some fun variation. Several parades and fairs became targets for those wishing to crash the event and add a bit of spontaneity and thrills. The Summer Solstice Parade in Fremont District of Seattle is probably the best example. Naked riders also showed up randomly at Critical Mass events around the world.

All of the groups on this page have had their own approach to cycling naked. Some focus on body painting and participate within the context of ancient cultural celebrations. Others use their body to bring attention to political issues. Some ride at night and others during the day. Some ride tricycles, unicycles, skateboards, rollerskates, or rollerblades. What is your city's ride going to be like?

Activist Richard Collins:

"I started regularly cycling nude through Cambridge in June 2002. After about half-dozen trips I was in the Daily Mail (Oct 4th), other local and national papers, and on Anglia TV News.

I continued throughout 2003 and was in Anglia TV's 'Table Talk' two weeks ago for 1 hour (nude) and talking about nude cycling!

I've done well over 500 miles nude on roads, country lanes and footpaths cross country." [source e-mail interview, 11 Feb 2005, with Richard Collins]

Richard, who lives in Hardwick, Cambridge has been arrested numerous times and released. Richard says: "My outings are NOT protests as such but 'activities'. Simply me having fun! And exercising my right to nude freedom!"
