Ride of Silence is an event that takes place in cities around the world in remembrance of those killed in vehicle accidents while riding a bike. The purpose of the Ride of Silence is two fold.. 1 to remember those lives lost and 2 to make drivers aware that they have to share the road with cyclists.
