Sopt on!
I'm reminded of the naked man Pete G told us about in Avebury, during the transit of Venus. He knew people would be about, and it would be a very crowded place at a special time. So he took his clothes off to show how 'spiritual' he was.
Bet he wouldn't have got his knob out at Doll Tor at 3am in February!
I was at Avebury this weekend and saw him climbing the hill. I don't think I swerved, but I did quickly think "oh, they're climbing Silbury again!". Quite a few followed him up there.
