Last month organizers signaled this year’s event might be different, a little more social distancing than usual.

“We simply must put the safety of Portlanders first,” organizers wrote in a Facebook post at the time. “We are bigger than the virus, and even if we have to ride circles in our living rooms in the buff, we will ride on.”

The event last year saw 10,000 participants in varying degrees of undress. The event is meant to protest against society’s dependency on oil as well as promote cyclist safety and body positivity.
