Jérôme Naturel

In this episode of Naked Age we meet Jérôme Jolibois, a Belgian naturist and avid cyclist whose naked bike activism paved the lane for him to become the first open naturist elected to the Brussels Town Hall. Plus we explore the convergence of two movements: Nude Activism and Bicycle Activism, and the spark that led to the World Naked Bike Ride. (Episode originally published February 1, 2022)Listen to all episodes of Naked Age at http://nakedage.coItems mentioned in the episodeCyclonudista Brussels: http://www.cyclonudista.be/WNBR: http://wiki.worldnakedbikeride.orgJérôme on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/PourquoiPasNu/Jérôme on Twitter: https://twitter.com/JeromeNaturelJérôme on Flickr: https://www.flickr.com/photos/50335367@N00/Read the “Behind the Episode” notesCreditsResearch ResourcesA Brief History of Nakedness, Carr-Gomm, Phillip; The University of Chicago PressHunt, Steve E., Naked Protest and Radical Cycling, A History of the Journey to the World Naked Bike Ride. https://www.academia.edu/35589138/Naked_Protest_and_Radical_Cycling_A_History_of_the_Journey_to_the_World_Naked_Bike_RideInterview with Jérôme Jolibois on World Naked Bike Ride Facebook Page: https://www.facebook.com/wnbr.international/posts/10157432797025833/“Brussels resident gets naked in a cafe”, Het Belang Van Limburg; Jul 18, 2012. https://www.hbvl.be/cnt/aid1209355 “Naked Cyclists Protest in Brussels”, Nieuwsblad; Jun 15, 2013. https://www.nieuwsblad.be/cnt/dmf20130615_00624377ClipsLady Godiva Rides Again (1952)“Critical Mass London - June 2015 #CriticalMass”, uploaded by DrMorocho on YouTube [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3_F5DkA501U]“Jérôme Jolibois de Cyclo Nudista dans le Dan Late Show”, uploaded by Le Dan Late Show on YouTube [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E26ruNvgTE0]MusicHeaven by Bio Unit, Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial 4.0 International License.
