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 12th Annual 2022 Southern-Hemisphere 
 (So-Hemi) World Naked Bike Ride - San Francisco. It's the second of five 
 WNBRs for the 2022 bike naking season and typically one of the two larger 
 WNBRs of the year.\nThe COVID pandemic is turning into endemic and more 
 events are returning to the city. Our WNBRs are among them. So on Saturday, 
 March 12, 2022 bring your bikes to Ferry Building near Market Street & the 
 Embarcadero Blvd.\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.\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 it’s best to have a sarong, a beach wrap or 
 shorts ready for quick cover up.\nOur ride is part of a global protest 
 taking place today in many cities throughout 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.\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. Our rides are also 
 celebrating the further adoption of zero-emission vehicles. Many 
 manufacturers have announced they are going electric. California has 
 adopted a law that no new vehicles be sold with gasoline engines in 2035. 
 These protest rides have helped to bring about these changes.\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 12th Annual 2022 So-Hemi World Naked Bike Ride - San Francisco\n
