Clothed Volunteers Needed for World Naked Bike Ride
As usual the World Naked Bike Ride-Chicago will be in June this year. June 8th to be specific. And as usual we need assistance.
I'm the head of security for this ride and I need clothed volunteers for corking and crowd control. Imagine a Naked Critical Mass. Our goal is to keep the non-riding public (spectators) from becoming gropers ad grabbers. Smiling and a positive attitude is all I ask.
This year we are also going to have a second group of volunteers for clean up. We use a north side park as a rest stop and have left it in horrible condition many times. This is not the goal behind the ride. If u are environmentally minded and dont want to get involved in the nude aspect of the ride i would ask for you to pht your effort into this group.
There is a Naked Ride Security group you can join with some FAQ. And i'm always willing to talk if you have questions. My e-mail is gec00@hotmail.com. Drop me a line with your number and i'll get in touch.
And cause no good deed should go unpaid we do imbibe a few drinks after the ride. Ofcourse there is no expense for the volunteer. :)
Thanks for your attention.
Sincerely,
Gabe

2nd mass message was send to the Naked Ride Security group.
I hear there are a few people in the Open group on Facebook saying they are doing security. They haven't spoken to me though. Does someone have the kindness in their heart to shepherd them to the right spot? The open group on facebook for Naked Ride is not somewhere I'll tread.

Short and sweet messages that will be given over megaphones at the rally:
1) Ladies ride in the middle of the road
2) Men, chivalry isn't dead, ride on the outside.
3) Slower riders please go to the front at the beginning
4) Save the heavy drinking for the after party
5) No pics inside the rally6) Be aware of your surroundings at all times
More will be added.

Time Out Chicago decided to give us unwanted press. The need for clothed security was not mentioned and is even greater. Folks with corking experience, riding in Mass, Security experience, or just the courage to stand between those that would do wrong and those trying to do right.
Regardless of your thoughts on Critical Mass or pack riding no one is asking to be sexually assaulted.

Hey there! I'd like to help out with security. I've done bike marshaling for Chiditarod for three years so I have some experience corralling party people from the saddle of a bike.
