2009 RIDE OF SILENCE raises awareness for cyclists.
The Ride of Silence, an international event held annually to honor fallen cyclists and bring attention to bicycle safety, was held in Uptown Greenville on May 20, 2009. More than 55 cyclists gathered in the Bicycle Post parking lot to support bicycling in our community. With traffic control from the Greenville Police Department, the group traveled silently through some of the busiest streets in Greenville demonstrating that cyclists have rights to roads.
The event garnered media attention from several local TV stations and the Daily Reflector. Visit the links below to learn more. Daily Reflector WITN WNCT
