Vancouver has always been a hard place to find pictures because the only significant publishers are myself and irishboy. The pictures are out there in the hands of many older Asian men and wnbr participants who just don't seem to publish for whatever reason. As for bigger rides Vancouver is straight up prude compared to portland, and don't forget portland big ride is a nighttime one.
I did not mean to give the impression that I think it's a strategy or funny to creep out any women participants. This does happen sometimes and is unfortunate. The women I was referring to would like canvas the whole area verbally berating photographers that were like 30-40 feet away from them. They were just pissed that someone took their picture without unrequired permission-naked or not.
Again I do not want to make anyone uncomfotable and I do keep somewhat of a distance (I mean who doesn't have a zoom lens today) but this is a ride to raise awareness.....
