No worries about the event itself. I haven't seen any official numbers, but it looks like the total turnout in London was good this year.
What was a touch worrying, was that so many of the "Beautiful Bare All" ladies who had made repeat performances in prior years were no shows. That could just be a coincidence or they might have "had enough" of some aspect of the ride. Dealing with having thousands of strangers take fully nude pictures of you, and having them spread all over the world forever is tough enough, but the higher resolution tightly body part focused images may cross a line.
And there are probably "nutters" who track some down, and pester and bother these brave and beautiful ladies and, at some point, it all gets to be too much bother and hassle. They get identified too often just as the nude girl on the bike, and meet strange guys who tell them "I have dozens of nude pictures of you." That's why you don't want to poison the well by passing their names etc. around. What's appealing here is that most are otherwise ordinary regular people, not actresses, models or porn stars trying to sell themselves to the public.
And these girls are mostly of the age where they get married, build careers, have children and move on in their lives. So who knows why so many veterans didn't show this year?
The good news is there was a promising crop of new "talent" in London this year, and some stunners who didn't bare it all. Often those ladies get more courage the second year and do it right. So we might have some good things to look forward to.
The fact that the massively biggest rides, like Portland, are held at night where good pictures are hard to take, might indicate that many women are willing to ride and be seen by those in attendance that night, but having thousands of detailed and permanent pictures of them nude that one night floating around for years might be more than a fun ride in the raw is worth to them.
