Share your love

NEW ORLEANS — Cyclists took to the streets of New Orleans this weekend for the 18th Annual World Naked Bike Ride, an event organizers say is designed to raise awareness about bicycle safety, environmental issues, and the vulnerability of cyclists sharing the road with motor vehicles.

The ride wound its way through several historic neighborhoods, drawing spectators, photographers, and the attention that has become synonymous with the annual event.

Organizers and supporters describe the ride as a form of artistic expression and activism, arguing that the visual impact draws attention to causes that might otherwise be overlooked. The event has become a tradition in New Orleans, and similar rides are held in cities around the world.

This year marks nearly two decades that the ride has been held in New Orleans.
