Unfortunately, I'm doubtful that Chicago will yield as many amazing pics as last year. The temperature was in the 50's (fahrenheit) in Chicago last night and for your Europeans that's more like October or November weather than summertime. I would have to imagine that cut their size down immensely (if you recall last year because they had a method for counting their riders they were officially the largest in the US). Also, I checked their website and among other things they were suggesting riders bring clothes in backpacks in case they got too cold during the ride. They also said they were going to shorten the ride and shorten the pre-ride painting session, which if you recall is where a lot of the pics came from.

That said, assuming they follow the same policies as last year, they're probably the only ride to utilize official photographers, who are authorized to take pics of naked people before, during and after the ride and put them on the internet for the sake of publicity (most of the photos that ended up on here were from those photographers). Most of the pics that made it to OCC were from these guys. So we can be sure that whatever nudity there was, we'll see it.
