6:40pm – 8:00pm: Ride of Silence (10 miles)
8:00pm – 8:30pm: Clean up

The RoS is recommended for ages 10 and up as we need to keep the group together for maximum visibility. We'll be riding no more than 2-up to allow motorists space to safely pass the group.
Lights will add to the effect, so if you have bike lights, plan on using them during the ride.
