This is the 2nd year for the ride in Madison. We hope to continue the ride every year. Come on out and join us, last year we were accompanied by a reporter from WORT and had over 40 riders and hope to have more this year, we also have Officers from the Southwest Policing Team with us. It is not a critical mass ride, we will be obeying all traffic rules and using hand signals to communicate. Helmets, headlights and taillights please. Thanks, hoping as many riders as possible will join us.

The ride begins at Brittingham Park Wednesday at 7 p.m. Launched in 2003 in Dallas, Texas, the Ride of Silence is a free event that asks cyclists to pedal no faster than 12 mph and remain silent throughout. It aims to raise awareness of drivers, police departments and elected officials that bicyclists have a legal right to the public roadways." http://host.madison.com/ct/business/biz_beat/article_5cfbb704-7d9b-11e0-94c0 -001cc4c002e0.html _______________________________________________ Bikies mailing list [email protected] http://lists.danenet.org/listinfo.cgi/bikies-danenet.org _______________________________________________ Bikies mailing list [email protected] http://lists.danenet.org/listinfo.cgi/bikies-danenet.org
