DESCRIPTION:WNBR Portland 2024 - It's a protest! Celebrate cycling\, body 
 positivity\, and resisting fossil fuel dependency at the 20th installment 
 of Portland's World Naked Bike Ride\nCelebrate cycling\, body positivity\,
  and resisting fossil fuel dependency at the 20th installment of 
 Portland's World Naked Bike Ride. (Un)dress to your preferred comfort 
 level\, grab your favorite human-powered transport\, and meet at Colonel 
 Summers Park at 3:30 pm\, with the ride kicking off at 4:15. Those who are
  unable to ride are invited to join along SW Naito Parkway between the 
 Morrison and Burnside bridges for a parade-like atmosphere. This ride is 
 protesting oil dependence\, in particular the potential approval of Zenith
  Energy's new air quality permits by the Department of Environmental 
 Quality\, calling for folks to make their opinions heard during the public
  comment period\n\nClothing optional - do whatever makes you feel 
 comfortable\, aka "As bare as you dare". You don’t need to be naked\, all 
 wheels\, all bodies welcome. \n\nThis year's route will transform Naito 
 Parkway between the Morrison Bridge and Burnside bridge into a vibrant 
 parade route\, inviting spectators to come out\, cheer and support from 
 the sidelines. Folks who are not able to join for the ride can support the
  protest by by cheering on the riders from the sidewalks and waterfront 
 park\, as part of this joyous and impactful event\, from 4:35pm to 
 5:15pm.\n\nThe World Naked Bike Ride makes a powerful statement against 
 oil dependency\, calls for safer cycling infrastructure\, and promotes 
 body positivity. The World Naked Bike Ride is an international protest 
 movement with rides in dozens of countries\, but for the last 20 years 
 Portland Oregon has organized one of the largest local expressions of this
  global movement. This year we are going to have a ‘die in’ protest\, 
 symbolizing the devastating impacts of oil dependency on the on the 
 environment and communities. In particular we hope to bring attention to 
 the massive risk Zenith Energy is posing with their oil train terminal on 
 the Willamette river.\n\nThe ride will conclude with an after-party at a 
 surprise location with local DJs.\nWorld Naked Bike Ride Portland 2024\,

 we want to minimize our time there.  \n\nStay behind the ride leaders 
 wearing pink safety vests. Pack in pack out\, leave no trace. \nWe are all
  responsible for this ride and it takes all of us to make it work. There 
 is only one route and one set of ride leaders this year\, we need to stay 
 together as a group. \n\nGetting clear consent is mandatory before taking 
 photos or touching anyone's bike or body\, including those of romantic 
 partners\, friends or enemies. We encourage participants to model asking

 heritages\, identities and beliefs being flown.\n\nThis ride is not
