North American Rides for 2023

This page will be updated periodically over the next months as rides are added, rescheduled, or canceled. When there are changes to this page, we will post about it on the blog. (Meant to do that last year, but you know what they say about good intentions.)

Recommendation: In the spirit of WNBR’s ecological advocacy, please do not travel great distances and burn large amounts of fossil fuels just to ride naked. Instead, organize a ride in your own city or metropolitan area. We won’t turn you away or green-shame you if you drive in from wherever to ride with us, because this is Texas, where everywhere is far from everywhere else. But please be conscientious.

As of the beginning of June, a week before WNBR season kicks off, rides in 20 North American cities have dates announced. Houston’s is scheduled to run on the night of 9 September.
