All around the globe tens of thousands of bike riders are riding naked in protest to our dependency on oil.

The San Francisco edition of  2012 World Naked Bike Ride Day will meet at the east side of the fountain in Justin Herman Plaza on March 10th.

Meet at 11:00am  for body painting (Bring body paints, washable markers, watercolors or other easily removed media to apply slogans and designs to your bodies if you wish) and then a Noon departure from the Plaza so that the ride will take place in the warmest part of the day, but they ride rain or shine so no excuses not to be here and bare it out.

The ride hits AT&T Park, the embarcadero, Fisherman’s Wharf, North Beach, the Haight, the Castro and more.

How “Naked” is this ride?: While it is a “naked” bike ride, all are welcome; it’s ride as bare as you dare. That is, body paint, rubber latex, bikinis, topless, lingerie, bubble pack, whatever costume you are comfortable riding with. Skates or skateboards have ridden along with us in the past. How about a nude unicyclist? 

Bonus Ride on Sunday? If weather is outstanding and enough riders are willing, there will be an Encore Naked Bike Ride the following day (Sunday, March 11, 2012) – Check Facebook for details.
