Join cyclists worldwide in a silent, slow-paced ride in honor of those who have been hurt or killed while cycling on public roadways. We will have a police escort along the 6.8 mile route and will ride at a slow pace.
Though solemn, the group ride is inspirational for riders of all ages, all kinds of bikes, experience and ability
Helmets are required.
The New River Valley ride was first organized in 2008 after the untimely death of Fess Green, local professor and veteran cyclist.
There's ample parking across the street at Kollmorgen.
The Radford City Public Safety Building is located at 10 Robertson Street in Radford, VA.
