The Ride of Silence (www.rideofsilence.org (http://www.rideofsilence.org)) is on May 20.
I missed last year, and I'm not missing this year.
We all know someone who's been injured or killed while cycling on public roadways. This ride is for:
Mourning those cyclists killed or injured.
Telling the world cyclists are not going to be chased or intimidated off the streets we legally share
Making motorists aware of the life long legal, as well as life changing, problems that can ensue from killing a cyclist
I'll be riding from Antioch City Hall at 7PM with my wife Tricia, a few friends, some Delta Pedalers and whoever else shows up.
It would be swell if some NorCal folks joined us for this silent, 12mph max, 8 mile or so ride.
If Antioch is too far away, check rideofsilence.org for a ride nearer you.
