According to witnesses, the police led the man away after stunned participants noticed.

“I heard gasps and I turned around – it was a horrible sight,’ one witness is quoted as saying on the Cambridge News.

‘It’s fair to say he was overexcited and got aroused. It looked like he was enjoying the event a bit too much.

‘One of the organisers went over to him and told him to put his trousers on while speaking on a walkie-talkie to police.

‘The man looked sheepish when he was spoken to by the police.’

In a response to complaints posted on Facebook, ride organiser Barry Freeman said: ‘We do not accept this behaviour and he was dealt with and removed before the ride started.’

According to organisers, protesters can cycle "as bare are you dare" but the rules state they must be riding bikes and there should be no skaters, or runners and riders cannot wear face masks.

Under-16s must be accompanied by an adult.

A Cambridgeshire police spokesman previously told the News: "So long as people don't act in an inappropriate or offensive way, they will not be committing an offence.

"We have been notified of the event and it is going through the usual planning processes."
