Philadelphia Naked Bike Ride, Saturday, August 24, 2024
Hi Fellow Cyclists,
PNBR has announced the 2024 ride will be on Saturday, August 24th. I've been to most of them and have always found them great fun.
The ride usually kicks off at 5:00 p.m., finishes around 7:00, and covers a distance of about nine to eleven miles. The route is different each year but always passes lots of prominent sites in one of the nation's most historic cities.
It attracts an upbeat and festive crowd of 2,000 to 3,000+ riders in all stages of dishabille and body costumes, many displaying remarkable creativity and humour. The starting and ending sites of the ride are not announced until a day or two before. Last year's ride ended at Independence Hall. Lots of watering holes in the area, and once you've got your togs back on, the locals are keen to serve you.
A number of us meet up before the ride and go to supper after the ride. Come join us! Contact me if you'd like more info.
Cheers, Ed B.
