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 9th Annual World Naked Bike Ride - San 
 Francisco 2018 - So. Hemi Edition. It's the second of five WNBRs for the 
 2018 bike naking season and typically 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 Saturday, March 10, 2018 bring your 
 bikes to Ferry Building near Market Street & the Embarcadero Blvd.\n\nWe 
 meet northwest of the Ferry Building, between the 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 over a dozen WNBRs while under cloud of the city 
 anti-nudity ordinance, with NO citations or complaints. However, 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\nThis WNBR will 
 focus on our continued world wide protest of the domination and dependency 
 of big oil, our need for continued renewable energy and technological 
 advances to better our planet. And now more than ever, to protest the Trump 
 Administration whose very goals are to benefit big oil, clean coal(?) and 
 put the environment at greater risk than ever.\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. 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, tech savvy and 
 environmentally concerned friends to join us. It's ride as bare as you dare 
 for the 9th Annual World Naked Bike Ride - San Francisco 2018 - So. Hemi 
 Edition.\n https://www.indybay.org/newsitems/2018/02/13/18806693.php
