The World Naked Bike Ride is an international event protesting oil dependency, promoting positive body image, and raising cyclist awareness. The bike ride’s dress code is “bare as you dare,” so all participants are welcome whether fully clothed, covered in body paint, or completely bare. It has been successful in various other cities such as nearby Chicago, though this is the first summer it will take place in Saint Louis. The Saint Louis event will have some pre-ride body painting at 7 pm.

There will also be a promotional event one week prior on July 26 at 9 pm. Indecent Exposure to Cars: The Story of the Naked Bike Ride will screen at the Community Arts and Media Project (CAMP) at 3022A Cherokee Street. Delicious baked goods will be available.
