Madison Naked Bike Ride: June 18th

I've missed this the last two years because they don't seem to advertise it well. Please help spread the word so we can make it as big as event as possible.

They do not promote it much, if at all. The actual meeting place is not announced, instead the day of the ride they announce a checkpoint where they take riders in groups to the start point. There is a strict deadline to be at the checkpoint. Their policy is if you are late, try again next year. I headed out early, had a flat tire on my bike, and just barely made it on time. Fortunately, I carry a spare tube and small air pump. They do not, as far as I know publish a map of the route. Can you imagine how pissed off I would have been if I missed the ride after driving 23 hours to get there? Chicago does a similar procedure, but posts a route map the day of the ride, so if you are a little late you could catch up with the group.
Because there is little or no promotion the spectator count, with the exception of the Capitol Circle area, where there was a farmers market type thing going on was quite low. I don't think we had more than 100 spectators the first couple miles.

There is a Meetup discussion group with updates and pics and video of this years ride. https://groups.io/g/MadisonWNBR
