| Notes: | THE 2023 RIDE OF SILENCE Mark your calendar, for the evening Wednesday, May 17, 2023 for the 21st annual Ride of Silence. This is a worldwide ride made up of many locations that will honor and pay respect to the hundreds of cyclists that are killed or injured each year. Nationally, it is organized by The RIDE OF SILENCE ORGANIZATION. In Jacksonville, it is being organized by the North Florida Bicycle Club. The ride exists * To HONOR those who have been injured or killed * To RAISE AWARENESS that we are here * To ask that we all SHARE THE ROAD If you have never been a part of a Ride of Silence, please make it part of your list of things to do in 2023. Bring your NFBC member and non-member friends. The ride is free. Helmets must be worn and because it is an evening ride, front and back lights are required There is no registration. All you have to do is show up and sign the NFBC ride waiver. The ride is a funeral-type procession, we will ride in a group at a pace all can maintain. The short 7 mile route will follow San Jose Blvd North to Nathan Krestul Park (La Vaca Rd and San Jose Blvd). There, we will have a brief ceremony to honor those killed in a cycling/motorist accident. The ride then returns to our starting point. Please arrive early so that we can roll out on time. Cyclists will 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 the public roadways. |
