The roughly 13-mile ride travels from Lemon Hill to Independence Hall.
The Philly Naked Bike Ride returns Saturday for its 14th edition, with riders going on a 13-ish mile “bare as you dare” trek throughout the city.
This year’s ride kicks off at 5 p.m. at Lemon Hill in Fairmount Park, following a pre-ride body painting session from 2 p.m. to 4:30 p.m. Riders will cycle in various states of undress on a course that includes jaunts down Market Street, 13th Street, 21st Street, South Street and Broad Street, among others.
The ride wraps up at Independence Hall. Unlike last year, there is no afterparty because the ride’s “capacity and nudity makes it difficult,”. Instead, they recommended participants support their favorite local bars or restaurants, while wearing clothing. A Philadelphia tradition for more than a decade, the Naked Bike Ride arrived in the city in 2009, when a four-mile course reportedly drew about 400 riders. The COVID-19 pandemic brought a cancelation in 2020, but it returned the following year. Today, it typically sees several thousand participants, and promotes body positivity, cycling advocacy, and economic sustainability.
