Our web site and web master are waiting for you to register your ride so that others, including the media, can see the impact this ride is making.<\/p>\n<p>Your ride does NOT have to have thousands of participants. Don\u2019t put that pressure on yourself. It doesn\u2019t even have to have hundreds, or tens. Three, four, or five riders together, memorializing past cyclists and hoping for future change, is all we\u2019d like to see.<\/p>\n<p>Sure, the more the better. But you and your friends riding in your town on May 20, at 7 PM, for a short, slow, and silent 8 mile ride constitutes a location we want to see listed on <a rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.rideofsilence.org\/main.php\">the web site<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>WE NEED MORE <a rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.rideofsilence.org\/locations-domestic.php\">LOCATIONS<\/a>. And new ones, especially. Please come out and show your solidarity, your passion against cyclists getting killed.<\/p>\n<p>The ride is world wide, on the same day, at the same time. The best part, it\u2019s free. There is no other event that covers the earth like The Ride Of Silence (though Nike is trying to steal the idea).<\/p>\n<p>Please. If you\u2019re for active people, you want to show your colors this day.<\/p>\n<p>Thank you.<\/p>\n<p>Let the silence roar.<\/p>\n<p>Chris Phelan, Founder<br \/>The Ride Of Silence<br \/>One day.
