The World Naked Bike Ride is returning to Cardiff in 2022. The popular cycling event took over the city's streets once again last year after a covid induced hiatus in 2020.
The 14th edition of this popular cycling event will take place on Saturday, July 16 with the theme ‘as bare as you dare’. Fancy dress and body painting are encouraged, and many participants start the ride with clothes on, but get their kit off as they pedal through the capital.
Despite the carnival like atmosphere, the ride is not just for fun - there is a serious message behind it. The ride is part of the global World Naked Bike Ride protests, which take place in cities across the world every summer, including Madrid, Toronto and Mexico City.
