  My WNBR schedule is up in the air this summer. I usually drive up to Buffalo to visit family in June and go to the Toronto ride, although last summer I drove all the way up there and forgot my passport. I also go up there in August for the Buffalo ride that is my only annual event since I can combine that with visiting family in Buffalo and friends in the Central NY State area.
  This year the June trip looks unlikely since I am working on a major remodel job on a house I bought to resell. I am behind schedule and over budget (not enough to qualify as a government contractor though) but I doubt it will be ready in time to make the June Trip
  I may do the San Francisco ride in fall. I have enough points to fly out there for free so all I would need is a room and bike rental. Have to wait and see how things work out. Montreal later this summer may be possible too.

  [quote]Will any events later get cancelled?[/quote] It's a possibility, but highly unlikely. Each participating city, such as Portland, Los Angeles, Toronto, Chicago, Amsterdam, etc., has WNBR organizers. These organizers are responsible for cancelling, green lighting, or postponing their own WNBR event for whatever reason that may be. Each organizers have their own social media page or website to inform those who want to attend their WNBR the status of the ride. Until the organizers make an official announcement of cancelling of their ride, the World Naked Bike Ride event on those dates and in those cities are happening.

  [quote]Are all these events still going on, with what is going on in the Canary Islands right now?? Will any events later get cancelled?? I never was planning to go, I just want to know it is not cancelled, just in case someone else wanted to know if these events are still going on. Thanks in advanced for any response.[/quote] What is going on in the Canary Islands that could affect WNBR's elsewhere?

  [quote]I have heard Montreal is a really cool city with a lot to do. I would do that then San Francisco if I had the money or creditcard airmiles points to go travel for that. I cannot go right now because of my own personal finances, and I do not want to recieve grants or gifts or borrow money from other people with strings attached to go anywhere outside my state right now. If I go anywhere this year I might try to drive to Florida, but I really do not think I have the money to do even that. I think a lot of people around my age (29) do not have a lot of money to travel right now a lot. So I know this is not that abnormal for my generation, which is Generation Z or people born between January 1 1996 and January 1 2013. Since I am a 20 something aged 29 years old, I am considered to be inside Gen Z since I was born in 1997. Thanks for reading this post![/quote] How about New Orleans? Less than 3 hours by car from where you live.

  I have always been interested in WNBR but there is never one close enough to me. However, I am curious about e-bikes. Are we allowed to ride them? If there is ever an event near or in Kentucky, someone please let me know ASAP.

  [quote]I have always been interested in WNBR but there is never one close enough to me. However, I am curious about e-bikes. Are we allowed to ride them? If there is ever an event near or in Kentucky, someone please let me know ASAP.[/quote] Probably the closest ones to you would be St. Louis, MO and Columbus, OH.I have done both. St Louis as part of my World Naked Bike Ride Summer Tour in 2022, Columbus in 2023. Pros and cons with both of them. St Louis ride had over 1000 riders, but the majority of them treated it like a costume party. Those of us that went totally nude got the most attention. They have a real cool block party both before and after the ride. Overall, i enjoyed it. The main con is the high crime rate there and since it ends after dark, that could be a concern. Columbus was a fun ride, relatively small turnout of riders because if you are not on Farcebook, I wouldn't even try it. It was just about impossible to get any information like start time and meetup location unless you are on Farcebook. After driving from Buffalo to Columbus, staying at a motel. I would have missed the ride had there not been another guy at the same motel that saw my WNBR license plate and contacted me once they announced the meetup time and location a few hours before the ride. I swear, Mark Zuckerberg must own that ride and unless he can put a couple bucks on his pile of billions by selling your personal info to everyone and their mother, you won't get any info. I spoke to a couple of the organizers about that and they were a bit receptive to having a public page. I don't know if anything came out of it. Actually, not being in your backyard has it's advantages. You don't have to worry about someone you would rather not see you participating seeing you like a neighbor or employer.
