This sounds inherently dangerous...
Also, Sam, I got my magnet. Now I am trying to figure out how to scale the Citibank building to get it onto their lightning rod....

Thanks for the mention, Sam! There was a great turn-out this year, with only one injury I am aware of (which was due to a dark street and a pothole, not necessarily the number or riders).

is there a Police escort?

No escort, but there were so many people, there were bound to be a few off-duty officers there.
