It looks like a lot of ordinary people mostly riding ordinary bikes in conventional clothing with a few in genuine tweed. The only concern is the possibility of crashing a SWB recumbent in that large a crowd. I'm not sure I would do it on my Haluzak Horizon but would consider using a trike.
I've ridden my Cruzbikes in large crowds without any issues.
That being said, not having to worry about balancing in a large crowd is definitely a plus.
