This morning I had one of my stranger shoots. The British Airways i360 had invited some of Brighton’s naked cyclists for a free ride in the pod before morning opening. The cyclists will be taking part in the Brighton Naked Bike Ride on Sunday (10th June). Every year people strip off to take part in the World Naked Bike Ride in different global cities, their nakedness highlights the vulnerability of cyclists on urban roads. The Brighton Naked Bike ride has been taking place since 2006, I photographed it in its inaugural year and you can see my images from the first ride in this Flickr album.

Nick Sayers one of the organizers of the Brighton Naked Bike Ride. I shot a montage portrait of Nick for Source Magazine back in 2010.
