Korky Day: Justification for a little ribbing.

'''Welcome to ''World Naked Bike Ride''!'''
We hope you will contribute much and well.
You will probably want to read the [[Help:Contents|help pages]].
Again, welcome and have fun! [[User:Erik Baas|Erik Baas]] 07:38, 29 June 2012 (PDT)

== The year is not an insignificant detail. ==

I don't mean to be annoying by asking for the year, but I've been burned too many times assuming a Web site is up to date. Lots of Web sites haven't been updated for one or more years and the public can't tell whether it's up-to-date or not. The page says at the bottom when it was updated, but not which parts of that page were updated.

:You can always check ''all edits'' by clicking on the "History" tab. - [[User:Erik Baas|Erik Baas]] 13:30, 29 June 2012 (PDT)
::Thank you, Erik! That is true.

::However, it shows disrespect to all the readers to expect them to go to all that trouble searching, and which some will not know how to do. Can you ask whoever originally posted the announcement henceforth to include the year and the day of the week in all event announcements, not just the month and date? [[User:Korky Day|Korky Day]]

Good point. However, this is not nice. :-(

You could have done what I did: read the history of the page, and see that the latest edits were about the year 2012. I didn't know that, we have to rely on people from that city (ic. [[Vancouver]]) to update the information. - [[User:Erik Baas|Erik Baas]] 16:06, 16 April 2013 (PDT)

Re. your email: I checked the [http://wiki.worldnakedbikeride.org/index.php?title=Vancouver&action=history history] of "Vancouver" and found these edits: [http://wiki.worldnakedbikeride.org/index.php?title=Vancouver&diff=26889&oldid=26529] (11 July 2012) and [http://wiki.worldnakedbikeride.org/index.php?title=Vancouver&diff=26951&oldid=26889] (19 July 2012). The diff's clearly show it's about 2012. - [[User:Erik Baas|Erik Baas]] 16:03, 25 April 2013 (PDT)
:Yes, I could have done more work, but I was tired of Conrad's "not nice" neglect of my much earlier request, and so I thought I'd give him a little friendly nudge. It was not bad enough to call " not nice. :-( " in my opinion. And I want to prevent it happening in future. But I don't know you, Erik, and Conrad and I know each other, so that makes a difference. Sorry if I was over the line, but I don't think so.

==Rules for the Vancouver ride==
*Nudity is not forced on anybody. You decide what you are comfortable with.
*Respect the diversity of many different body types, and refrain from ogling.
*Realize that although we are naked, many people consider that private parts are still private. Don't bring them up as a topic of conversation with somebody you do not know.

==Naked bike riding tips==
*Prepare for riding rain or shine!
*If sunny, put on sunscreen!
*You do not have to be fully naked to join the ride.
*Wear shoes!
*We often start the ride with some clothing on and then stop away from the crowds to get bare!
*Keep your clothes with you -- you never know when you may need them (like... after the ride).
*Decorate your bike! Come with signs and funky hats! Cover your bike seat with fun fur.
*Ride safely and stay together as a group.
*Tell your friends! Spread the word!
