I will be there. I will take photos. I do want to point out how despite the geographic distance the massive difference between these events. Fremont has photographers everywhere, people pose, etc. Portland has way more people by a lot and while photography isn’t explicitly prohibited, it’s frowned upon. You set up a camera someone might knock it down, break it, etc. it’s just different. You def wouldn’t want to take photos of someone without permission unless you are being sly. You could literally be physically attacked. I’ve done both rides nearly 10x. It’s an entirely different world, one is a spectacle (Fremont) where you know what you signed up for, one is a protest. And while it’s mostly an excuse to get naked and walk around, the attitude is “it’s a protest”. People pose for photos but if someone came up and then took a photo of them they would ask you to delete it probably 50/50. 3 hours away but entirely different events.
