    Time details Meet for 7:30, ride at 8:15.

    Hold onto your guts it’s back. This is a strange experience. Although it’s a Naked Ride, we really need people dressed in regular clothing so the Zombies have people to chase. Last years people dressed up as Mad Max types with fake foam weapons as survivors of the apocalypse. We will have some fake blood to share. What can you expect? It’s a Zombie flash mob so we will show up places and surprise crowds. It’s actually madly liberating and lifts body shame in a way that’s impossible to describe and although we host many naked rides this is the only one that has this bizarre element. The route will be Zombie paced so if you’re a shambler and not a running zombie you can stay with the pack. But, please bring provisions as theirs no store stop for brains and entrails. The music will be entirely from Zombie movies and will have interspersed Movie dialogue and zombie sounds…. Then we’ve free entry at the end too an art show where there will be vendors and food, Art and music. They’re expecting us but people won’t be expecting us either. This is a protest against, in the George A Romero tradition against rampant Capitalism and group think. We will have many safe people volunteers present so if you’re a creep can you just stay home and save us the effort of asking you too leave. This is a safe/brave space and we need to be highly mindful of treating each other with respect on naked rides. We practice consent on all our rides, we also practice non violence when it comes to car interactions. One persons aggression towards a car pits the group at risk and other rides.
