THE LONDON RIDE HAS A NEW PHOTOGRAPHY POLICY FOR 2006

The London ride had a 2005 photography policy which worked well, but we decided to clarify the policy by writing it in a simpler clearer way.

ABOUT THE POLICY-
We welcome photography during the ride, but we've created some guidelines which should ensure a degree of privacy and comfort for all riders.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.

ENFORCEMENT-
Riders and supporters are actively encouraged to enforce the policy described below. Please notify a ride organiser or steward if a photographer refuses to comply. Thank you!

THE LONDON RIDE PHOTO/VIDEO POLICY (revised May 2006)

A - PHOTOGRAPHERS BEHAVIOUR
Photographers must behave in a respectful, friendly and reasonable manner at all times. If you make any rider uncomfortable, you will be required to leave the assembly area (or ride).

B - AT THE ASSEMBLY AREA (both BEFORE and AFTER the ride)
1. Always ask for consent before photographing a rider.
2. Don't photograph people undressing or dressing.
3. Don't photograph anyone within the roped off "privacy zone".

C - DURING THE RIDE
1. If possible, ask for consent if your photo will show a rider's frontal nudity or face.
2. Always ask for consent when taking a close-up photograph.
