What is this?
Join the QCBC for the Ride of Silence <br />Distance: 12 miles at 10-11 mph<br />Bring helmet, head light, rear flashers and a friend!<br /><br />Purpose of the ride is:<br />To HONOR those who have been injured or killed<br />To RAISE AWARENESS that we are here<br />To ask that we all SHARE THE ROAD<br /><br />The Ride of Silence is held in North America and rolls across the globe. The Ride of Silence is a free ride that asks cyclists to ride no faster than 12 mph, wear helmets, follow the rules of the road, and remain silent during the ride. 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 public roadways. 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 is not aware of these rights, and sometimes not aware of the cyclists themselves.<br /><br />Learn more at http://www.rideofsilence.org/main.php
