I agree with the above. the rides consist of a complete mix of folk, probably about 40% are protesting, 40% are just getting naked because it is not a thing you can normally get away with in public and the rest are there to join in and get a good view of the other 80%!
They are not all exclusive groups, the total number of riders (over 1000) makes the event the spectacle (and therefore gets noticed) far more than a smaller ride of just the protesters. The 'feel' of the ride is one of 'fun', whatever your 'real reason' to be there.
