But if you read the article, they seem to have been using the US
definition of "nude". So swimwear/underwear. A *few* of the women
topless.

Which seems a little strange in a country where nudity is absolutely
the norm in the saunas, and very few would think of trying to cover
themselves while changing into/out of swimwear at a public river/lake
location.

What, you mean that that great Mr. Bean segment where he put on his
Speedo and then took off his pants was UNNECESSARY?

Ah well, the organisers should have arranged the race in France, not
Austria ... they would have had no qualms about going the full Monty
there ...
