Speaking of Yorks, I know the New York ride (6/11 like most) was cancelled due to dangerous weather, and was supposed to be rescheduled. It was an up-and-comer last year, so let's keep our eyes out for it.

Just for the record: The "ride no matter what" New York WNBR has been rescheduled to:
"Date: Sunday, July 24, 2011
Time: Body painting starts at 3, participants gather at 4pm, ride departs by 5pm. Assembly and body painting begins before ride, we ride out (in waves as needed) after our media moment at 4:00. Arrive early for body painting and socializing! Volunteers plan on coming early if possible to locations above.
Location: East River Park in Manhattan at Delancey Street, just south of Williamsburg bridge; final route will be communicated to riders who show up only.
We ask that photographers/press help create a safe space by being respectful, asking permission to photograph and encouraging others to do so. We also ask that photographers/press arrive no earlier than 4pm. Be sure to check in with a volunteer to provide your contact information, and be aware that some areas of starting point may be off-limits. Use caution when photographing the ride as it is in motion. Ideally, you can share some of your work towards promoting the ride and its causes in the future. There will be absolutely NO PHOTOGRAPHY at the AFTER-PARTY.
It is legal for both men and women to be completely topless in NYC. This was recently confirmed by an NYPD spokesperson. Participants who go bottom-less do so at their own risk. Nobody has been detained or ticketed for this in the previous two years of WNBR NYC. It is highly recommended that riders obey police orders to cover up to the legal minimum if given."
And don't forget that Philadelphia has its big WNBR on Sunday September 4th, 2011 at dusk. So this year's WNBR rides are not over yet, at least, on the East Coast of the US.
