Photography and filming policy
The London Ride has had the following photography/filming policy since 2005.
POLICY We welcome photography during the ride, but there are some restrictions.
- No photos are permitted BEFORE or AFTER the street ride EXCEPT in a designated photo area (where consenting riders can go to be photographed).
- During the street ride, no closeup photos of people are allowed without the person's written consent.
- During the street ride, no photos of participants when they aren't riding/skating (except with the person's written consent).
- Riders and supporters are actively encouraged to enforce these policies. Thank you!
This policy is intended to curtail any inconsiderate photography which might otherwise take place. We wish to create a safe and supportive environment for all riders.
All photographers present at the ride must abide by this policy. Those who do not will be asked to leave. This INCLUDES any riders or press who take photos.
To ensure that this policy is clear to all present, it may appear on signs at the ride assembly area or on leaflets distributed at the event.
If you are attending the ride as a photographer, we would like to remind you that the there are various points along the route which feature particularly striking backgrounds for photos of the ride (eg- Piccadilly, Piccadilly Circus, Trafalgar Square, Houses of Parliament, Westminster Bridge, Waterloo Bridge, Oxford Street, US Embassy).
There has been some debate about the restrictiveness of this policy, to see this visit the following link [1]
