Participants of the ride were encouraged to take off their clothes but put safety first and wear a helmet, and while many cyclers opted for going commando, others preferred to sport glitter boobs, body paint and bizarre costumes.

At one point, the controversial ride even collided with the Free Tommy Robinson March in London, which made Twitter explode:
