LA’s World Naked Bike Ride 2026 (photos)

CENSORED: Naked cyclists strip through London for World Naked Bike Ride
 
A guide to LA’s World Naked Bike Ride 2026: Gear up, Los Angeles
Who needs bikes to celebrate the biological accomplishments of these Anunnaki-created bodies?

Is it shameful to see me naked?
For those brave enough to let it all hang out, get ready for the clothing-optional World Naked Bike Ride 2026 Los Angeles (WNBRLA).

The head-turning bike fest—a global grassroots movement that began in 2004—is taking over L.A. with its bare-as-you-dare dress code to fight “indecent exposure to cars.”

For those able to look past the nudity, nakedness, and eye-popping dangly bits, this 19th annual bike ride’s primary (stated) goal is to advocate for sustainable energy and environmentally responsible living to combat our current car-driven society. That and to bring joy back to transportation via cycling. (Think CicLAvia but with more butts).

I should have the right to go topless. What is this, Russia? I'll show that President Putin!

.
I'm thinking of riding, but I feel fat!
But make no mistake: The nudity is a major part of the ride and is in itself a celebration of body positivity, strength, respect and acceptance for every human being becoming better than ever looks wise.
  • When is the WNBR 2026 in LA? The ride takes place Saturday, June 27, 2026. There will be two rides, in fact, the first at 10:00 am and the second at 2:00 pm.
  • Where does the ride take place? For the safety of its riders, WNBR doesn’t share the exact details of its routes until the week before the event on Instagram and Facebook.
PHOTOS: Holy moly, all those paginas and venuses for the whole world to see!

Stay home or avert your gaze! They're au naturel!
But here’s what we can say: The staging area for both rides will be in the parking lot of the Geffen Contemporary at MOCA (Museum of Contemporary Art) in Little Tokyo (140 Judge John Aiso St.), where there will also be body painters, food trucks and vendors.

In keeping with the event’s anti-car sentiment, organizers usually suggest leaving all cars behind—so wearing clothes to start and taking public transit is highly encouraged. But there will be parking for riders at the nearby Mangrove Parking Lot (414 E Temple St.) for $10, starting at 8:00 am.

Look for the “WNBR–LA General Parking” sign. Whether driving or cycling over, organizers ask that cyclist NOT undress until at the staging area.

I'm naked wearing body paint. I can shower off later. Hah, look at all these starved gawkers!

You sinful sinners, cover up! This is a beach!
The first ride starts at 10:00 am and is approximately 9 miles long—the longer of the two but is an easier route.

The second ride is at 2:00 pm and is about 7 miles long. This is the harder of the two rides, as the route goes over hills. Both go past DTLA landmarks and include photo ops and water stops.

Do I need to pre-register? All participants can register in person on the day of the event and get a debriefing on this year’s rules. Or pre-register by emailing wnbr.losangeles@gmail.com or via PayPal or Patreon).

Padded bike shorts, who needs'em? buns of steel
How much is it? As for the cost, the bike ride is technically FREE, but WNBRLA does welcome donations to help cover the cost of traffic escorts, porta potties, wristbands, loaner bikes, and more. (For those who donate at least $5, pick up a free backpack!)

Even if pre-registering, participants will need to check in on the day of the event to pick up a wristband.

I prefer skimpy. It's more tantalizing and alluring
How nude is “nude”? Do I have to strip to ride? We’re talking bare butts on bicycle seats and delicate bits flopping in the breeze, but the dress code is officially “bare as you dare.” Nudity isn’t technically required. So feel free to partake as fully clothed or as fully nude as you feel comfortable going. It's individual.

WNBRLA does encourage helmets and full-body SPF sunblock, as well as body paint and other creative expression—but strictly prohibits provocative fetish gear and genital jewelry and accessories. Also: no erections.

So how is this legal? Public nudity IS legal—sort of. Baring a nude body in a lewd manner that clearly has sexual or offensive intentions is illegal, however. Hence WNBRLA’s rules.

What if I don’t have a bike? In the past, WNBRLA has suggested DTLA Bikes or Just Ride L.A. for bike rentals. Or check out Time Out’s list of the best bike shops in L.A. to purchase one.

Participants can also skate, scooter, or ride a unicycle or tricycle—any human-powered vehicle—but keep in mind that the route will go both uphill and downhill. More

LAPD cops riot: Anti-ICE protests (live)

🔴 RIOT - LOS ANGELES - LIVE: Tactical alert (overtime for LAPD) has been declared

Earlier today at "ICE Out" Rally




List of names (Epstein Files)
(ABC News) Massive crowds from California to North Carolina to Minnesota to New York turnout to protest ICE crackdowns, Trump's dictatorship and lies, and to take attention away from redacted Epstein Files. What does "redacted" mean?

Redacting or sanitizing means removing sensitive information from a document so that it may be distributed to a broader audience. It is intended to conceal information while allowing the selective disclosure of other information. Typically, the result is a document that is unsuitable for transparency but suitable for publication or for dissemination to others rather than the intended audience of the original document. More

Trump's Epstein Files deleted!

More Epstein Files redacted, released
Todd Blanche: We'd release more, but we don't want to get anyone in trouble

Livin’ large on LA’s Skid Road (CNN)

(CNN) spent dawn to dusk on Los Angeles' Skid Road: What life is really like here
  • Food Not Bombs is feeding the homeless and needy

Compassion in action: FoodNotBombs.net
STOP WARS. SOLVE HUNGER: The US War against Iran is world-changing. The threat of a global conflict between nuclear armed countries has never been this close. The economy could crash. We worry for our volunteers in Palestine.

Wars are raging across the world while millions go hungry. The number of Americans becoming homeless increased by 32% during the Biden administration. Many more Americans will become homeless during the Trump years.

Maybe well-fed Katie "Karen" Porter can save us
Child poverty in the U.S. has more than doubled in the last 12 months. As many as a dozen seniors call the Food Not Bombs Hunger Hotline each day seeking home delivery of groceries often reporting that they have not eaten in days.

Volunteers are still organizing to provide relief to those suffering from the ravages of Hurricane Helene and the Burma (Myanmar) earthquake.

Democrats will solve all [of Israel's] problems.
War refugees are lining up for our meals in Europe and the Americas. As the economy grows more dire, the number of people seeking support from Food Not Bombs has never been so great.

Volunteers are busy providing food at labor strikes, Palestinian actions, and in defense of undocumented workers.

Food Not Bombs also celebrated its 45th anniversary on May 24, 2025.

As the Deep State-controlled Trump administration and its supporters in Congress threaten to cut SNAP and other social safety nets, people are finding community and hope by participating with Food Not Bombs. Please join us: foodnotbombs.net

Trump's total shutshow: Stephen Colbert

Happy birthday! Yosemite is 135 today

Yogi Bear welcomes kids to park
Yosemite is a U.S. national park in Northern California established on Oct. 1, 1890 (135 years ago), receiving 3,897,070 visitors (2023) [4] and 4,000,000+ in 2024.

It is bordered on the southeast by Sierra National Forest and on the northwest by Stanislaus National Forest. The park is managed by the National Park Service and covers 1,187 square miles (3,070 kms) in four counties – centered in…

Six months since Los Angeles Fire

Altadena is in foothills on the edge of Angeles Forest. Pacific Palisades is swank beachside.
California Gov. Gavin Newsom, Kathryn Barger, oops, sorry, LA Mayor Karen Bass was busy
The LA Fire in Altadena and the Pacific Palisades is the costliest fire disaster in US history.
.
It has been six months since the devastation touched Los Angeles, first with inexplicable winds then the common consequence, a California brush fire that spread all out of control. The cost of it may end up being a quarter trillion by some estimates. That seems impossible to believe because if it were true, how much better might that money be used?

Update from construction worker Adam Corolla

What was the cause in the Palisades Fire, a homeless campfire or a directed energy weapon deployed on some of the richest liberal real estate in the country? In Altadena it has become clear that the Eaton Fire was Southern California Edison's fault, according to conclusive forensic evidence gathered by attorneys Mikal Watts and Barbara Boxer's son (and Erin Brockovich) at lafirejustice.com.


SCE may be 100% to blame for starting it with their derelict transmission tower not being cared for, taken down, or secured and grounded to avoid this predictable outcome. But Mayor Bass, the lack of a reservoir, the fire department doing next to nothing, and no precautions being taken when the weather forecast perfectly predicted how bad the winds would be. Someone upstairs is to blame for not having enough precautions in place. It might be Kathryn Barger, but all eyes and targets are on Mayor Karen Bass and future president-wannabe Gov. Gav (Newsom). What does everyone claim the cause of this (Paradise/Camp-style) Fire was? Embers.

It's as if Vulcan, the god of fire, burned part of Los Angeles back to the stone age.

Panning for GOLD in creek bed (SUTRA)

Gold nuggets become bars, bars become coins and jewelry, which convert into cash

Metal detector signal under this boulder — we had to know what it was...praying
(How to Find Gold | Prospector Nic) May 26, 2025: Deep in a remote Aussie creek, Down Under, we locked onto a massive signal under the biggest boulder we’ve ever worked. The metal detector absolutely screamed — and we had to know what was down there. We spent four hours digging, shifting heavy rock, soaked in sweat and bush grit…and when we finally got to the target — it wasn’t what we expected. But GOLD has a funny way of testing one's patience. This hunt proves it: If you don’t quit, the gold eventually shows itself.

Tons of lost U.S. gold
How many tons of gold did Europeans extract?

SUTRA: Gold Prospectors
Translated by Dhr. Seven based on Ven. Sujata translation (AN 3.101)
“Raw [unprocessed native] gold has coarse impurities: soil, sand, gravel. A prospector or an apprentice gold panner pours it into another pan, where they wash, rinse, and clean it.

When those coarse impurities have been eliminated, there are middling impurities in the raw gold: dirt and grit.

The prospector washes it again. When those have been eliminated, there are fine impurities in the raw gold: fine black grime. The prospector washes it again. When that has been eliminated, only golden flecks remain.

A goldsmith or apprentice places the raw gold in a crucible where they heat, melt, then smelt it. Still the raw gold is not settled as the dross is not totally gone. The gold is not pliable, workable, or radiant, but rather is brittle and not yet ready to be worked.

The goldsmith keeps on heating, melting, and smelting it until the raw gold becomes pliable, workable, and radiant, no longer brittle but ready to be worked.

Then the goldsmith can successfully create any kind of ornament, bet it a bracelet, earring, necklace, or a golden garland.


In the same way, a monastic (wandering ascetic) committed to higher mind has coarse impurities (corruptions): unskillful bodily, verbal, and mental conduct. A sincere, capable monastic [in training] gives these up, gets rid of, lets go of, and eliminates them.

When they have been let go of and eliminated, there are middling impurities: thoughts of sensuality, malice, and cruelty. A sincere and capable monastic gives these up, lets go of, gets rid of, and eliminates them.

When they have been given up and eliminated, there are fine impurities: thoughts of family, country, and status. A sincere and capable monastic lets go of, gives these up, gets rid of, and eliminates them. When they have been given up and eliminated, only thoughts about the Teaching (Dharma) are left.

I'm not quite an adept yet. I still have to let go.
That absorption (immersion) is not yet peaceful or sublime, not yet tranquil or unified, but is held in place by forceful suppression [of the mental defilements].

However, there comes a time when mind is stilled internally; it settles, unifies, and becomes absorbed (immersed) in samādhi. That absorption is peaceful and sublime, tranquil and unified, not held in place by forceful suppression.

A monastic (a skillful trainee) extends the mind to realize by insight each and every thing that can be realized by insight; they are capable of realizing those things because each and every one is within range. More

How to get rich quick
With impurities eliminated, I could make $300K!

SUTRA: To the People of Venaga
(AN 3.63, Venāga Sutta) Translated by Bhikkhu Bodhi, edited by Dhr. Seven
...Then the Brahmin householders of Venāgapura approached the Blessed One [the Buddha].

Some paid homage and sat down respectfully to one side; some exchanged greetings with him and, when they had concluded their greetings and cordial talk, sat down to one side; some reverentially saluted him and sat down to one side; some pronounced their name and clan and sat down to one side; some kept silent and sat down to one side.

The Brahmin Vacchagotta of Venāgapura then said to the Blessed One:

“It is astounding and amazing, Master Gotama [the Buddha], how Master Gotama’s faculties are tranquil and the color of his skin is pure and bright. Just as a yellow jujube fruit in the autumn is pure and bright, so Master Gotama’s faculties are tranquil and the color of his skin is pure and bright.

“Just as a palm fruit that has just been removed from its stalk is pure and bright, so Master Gotama’s faculties are tranquil and the color of his skin is pure and bright.

What is more valuable, gold or self-mastery?
“Just as an ornament of finest gold, well prepared by a skilled goldsmith and very skillfully wrought in the furnace, placed on red brocade, shines and beams and radiates, so Master Gotama’s faculties are tranquil and the color of his skin is pure and bright.”

High and luxurious beds
What's wrong with worldly luxury bedding?
[How are his beds? They must be very nice.] “Whatever high and luxurious kinds of bedding there are — sofa, divan, long-haired coverlet, coverlet of diverse colors, white, woolen with floral designs, quilt of cotton wool, woolen coverlet ornamented with animal figures, woolen coverlet with double borders, woolen coverlet with a single border, silken sheet studded with gems, sheet made with silk threads and studded with gems, dancer’s rug, elephant rug, horse rug, chariot rug, rug of antelope hide, spread made of the hide of the kadali-deer, bed with a canopy above and red bolsters at both ends — Master Gotama surely gains them at will without trouble or difficulty.”

“Brahmin, those high and luxurious kinds of bedding are rarely obtained by those who have gone forth [into the left-home life of a wandering ascetic or shramana], and if they are obtained, they are impermissible.

“But, Brahmin, there are three kinds of high and luxurious beds that at present I gain at will, without trouble or difficulty. What are these three?

“They are the celestial high and luxurious bed, the divine high and luxurious bed, and the noble high and luxurious bed. These are the three kinds of high and luxurious beds that at present I gain at will, without trouble or difficulty.”
