SUMMARY:Ride of Silence
DESCRIPTION:On Wednesday May 21\, 2025 at 7:00 PM\, the Ride of Silence will traverse and unite the globe as nothing before it. Cyclists will take to the roads in a silent procession to honor cyclists who have been killed or injured 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. In 2003\, Chris Phelan organized the first Ride of Silence in Dallas after endurance cyclist Larry Schwartz was hit by the mirror of a passing bus and was killed. The Ride of Silence is a free ride that asks its cyclists to ride no faster than 12 mph\, wear helmets\, bring lights\, follow the rules of the road and remain silent during the ride. There are no registration fees. The ride\, which is held during National Bike Month\, aims to raise the awareness of motorists\, police and city officials that cyclists have a legal right to the public roadways. The ride is also a chance to show respect for and honor the lives of those who have been killed or injured. \nWHEN: Wednesday May 21st\, 7:00 PM Worldwide (always the 3rd Wednesday of May)\nWHERE: meet your host Jen Dodge at the Littleton Bike & Fitness parking lot (located at 30 Cottage Street Littleton\, NH) There are hundreds of locations worldwide.\n\nWHY DOES THIS RIDE EXIST?\nTo HONOR those who have been injured or killed while cycling on public roadways To RAISE AWARENESS that we are here.\nTo ask that we all SHARE THE ROAD THE RIDE OF SILENCE WILL NOT BE QUIET \nBike the North Country is a 501(c)3 organization.
