Default WNBR started as an environmental protest

Personally, I think people should be a bit more grateful that loads of women go naked in public for a protest.
Hijacked? Do you think WNBR started as just a naked fun ride and has now been hijacked?

It was scientifically literate "nutters" who first started the WNBR as a protest - to get public attention for what the overwhelming majority of scientists say is the greatest avoidable threat to our planet. The WNBR is an innovative (and fun) protest - by being naked. It's intended for our edification, not our gratification (although we lap it all up ).

I, for one, don't mind my journey being disrupted by naked cyclists.

According to what many women who have attended say, it's not "climate nutters" who spoil things, but intrusive photographers - usually clothed.
