DESCRIPTION:It's that time to tune up those bikes and toss those riding duds in the 
 wash, you won't need them for the 8th Annual World Naked Bike Ride - San 
 Francisco 2017 - So. Hemi Edition. It's the second of five WNBRs for the 
 2017 bike naking season and usually one of the two largest WNBRs of the 
 year.\n\nEach year, our turnout is getting larger and larger riding bare 
 through the streets of the city. So on Saturday, March 11, bring your bikes 
 to Ferry Building near Market Street & the Embarcadero Blvd.\n\nWe meet 
 northwest of the Ferry building, between the Ferry Building Farmer's Market 
 and the Starbucks west of the Ferry Building. We begin gathering at 11:00 
 AM in the open area along the pier. Please gather as close to the railing 
 and avoid blocking pedestrian traffic on the Embarcadero and also those 
 exiting the Ferry Building. We will have time to do body/face paint and 
 reacquaint ourselves. Bring body paints, watercolors and markers to apply 
 slogans and designs to each other and adorn your bikes with signs; meet 
 with old and new friends.\n\nWhile 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. And we have already had 12 WNBRs while under cloud 
 of the oppressive Weiner anti-nudity ordinance, with NO citations or 
 complaints. If you are still uncertain, than its best to have a sarong, a 
 beach wrap or shorts ready for quick coverup.\n\nOur ride is part of a 
 global protest taking place today in many cities throughout the US, Brazil, 
 Australia, New Zealand and other cities in the Southern Hemisphere. Tens of 
 thousands of naked bike riders are protesting the global dependency of our 
 society and economies at the hands of the oil cartels. We want to emphasize 
 the harm this dependency causes to our environment, businesses and social 
 lives. Nobody is unaffected. We want to endorse more bike riding and our 
 nudity expresses our vulnerability to these matters. It also draws 
 attention to our cause.\n\nOur route will take us through many popular 
 spots in the city such as Fisherman's Wharf, the Marina, Lombard, North 
 Beach, along Embarcadero, the Civic Center, the Haight, and the Castro. If 
 the weather permits, we might even go out to Ocean Beach. You say you can't 
 make it to the start on time? Don't worry, it's a "Do It Yourself" ride; 
 join us anytime you find us along the route and feel free to leave when you 
 must. It's great fun and an event you shouldn't miss. Tell all your bike 
 and environmentally concerned friends to join us, as bare as you dare for 
 the 8th Annual World Naked Bike Ride - San Francisco 2017 - So. Hemi
