If I could dare you to change just two things next year, or if I could do it myself (sadly I can't), it would be these:

1: lose the mask. I know you felt like it was necessary, but I don't think it's as necessary as you think. There's a lot of anonymity in being part of a group. People are so busy looking at all the naked people that the chances of them remembering one specific face is very small. Actually there've been plenty of psychology studies done about things like that... people generally don't recognize a person they met naked if they're clothed, and if they're focused on one thing (a few dozen naked people), they generally don't notice other details at all (think of the dancing gorilla test).

2: And... I mean, I know this is predictable as fuck, but I can't help but be me... I'd skateboard (or maybe electric skateboard). It'd give the same advantages of being full-frontal and totally exposed as rollerblades, but you could also be barefoot, and thus truly, genuinely naked.

And dude... I mean, unless you're a public figure, or a leader in a customer-facing company or something? Why not go talk to the TV people? A naked interview on the local news!? Hell yeah! You know they'd blur your genitals anyway, and you could even ask them to blur your face if you wanted.

If I were to do it in a different city, I would definitely lose the mask. But I don't know if I trust them to hide my identity on the news. Plus, there were a lot of anti- groups there who were mad that the ride was allowed to happen and taking pics of naked folk to expose them online with their information later.
