The World Naked Bike Ride up in Portland might get more press, but
Eugene has a ride celebrating “Less gas more ass” too! The Eugene
World Naked Bike Ride is not just a fun bike ride, but a protest as well.
“We ride our bikes naked (or almost naked) to symbolize vulnerability,”
says 2017 Volunteer Coordinator Ralph Forrest-Ball in an email to EW.
“Bicycles are vulnerable sharing the road with heavier, faster traffic, and
all of us are vulnerable because of our addiction to fossil fuels.” Forrest-
Ball says even though Portland’s event might get more attention,
Eugene is the perfect place for a protest like this, “I look forward to the
day when there are more bikes on the road than cars,” he says. “And one
way to make that happen is raising awareness and making bike riding
fun.” He adds: “Bicycles have the power to save the world. I really believe
that.” The route for the ride will be about six to 10 miles. If you want
to participate, but don’t feel comfortable being totally naked, that’s all
right. The dress code is “bare as you dare.” You can be totally nude, wear
a costume or body paint, but regardless of what your outfit, make sure
to wear a helmet.
Eugene’s World Naked Bike Ride meets at 4 pm at Monroe Park (Monroe
St. & W. 10th Ave). The ride begins at 4:30 pm. For more info, visit
worldnakedbikeride.org and facebook.com/WNBReug. The ride is FREE.
