Remembering Cyclists In The Ride Of Silence
Tonight… join cyclists worldwide in the Ride of Silence. It is a silent slow-paced ride (max. 12 mph/20 kph) in honor of those who have been injured or killed while cycling on public roadways.
Although cyclists have a legal right to share the road with motorists, the motoring public often isn’t aware of these rights, and sometimes not aware of the cyclists themselves. This ride is held every year during Bike Safety Month. You can link here to a US or International map and find organized Ride of Silence events in your area.
Thanks for the reminder.
