Previous rides data
We should probably put a table here with the name of the city, date of ride, number of participants, summary or link to ride report and a link to the Wiki page. D 15:19, 30 May 2006 (PDT)

Redirect to 'List of rides'
After several modifications by User:Nsayers and myself (see History: edit comments, previous versions), having verified/ensured that the extremely little content after 2006 appeared in the Cities pages, with Nsayers having moved all information for previous rides into the table Previous rides data, there was little more information here than already in the List of rides. The latter's header could easily be modified to integrate that little extra info (with a bit of rewriting and reordering for logic and readability, and of course eliminating its link to 'Past events'). This allowed me to REDIRECT 'Past events' to that page, which is far more useful e.g. for readers of http://www.worldnakedbikeride.org/ clicking the obvious link 'Past Events' in its left column. And it no longer causes people being sent back-and-forth between both pages that linked one another: Those www site readers interested in 'Past Events' had here to click 'List of rides', there saw a link 'Past events' and would have thought it to go to the page on this wiki site that they had been looking for... only to find themselves on a merry-go-round. Now they go apparently straight to all the goodies.
A typo brought to my attentions that other pages have names about 'rides' whereas for no clear reason the now redirecting page had 'events'. Good riddance.
