2008 CANBERRA RIDE OF SILENCE: 24th May

2008 Canberra Ride of Silence

www.rideofsilence.org

Saturday May 24th

The Ride of Silence is held yearly in cities across the world. For the 
first time in Canberra, join other cyclists in a silent ride at a slow 
pace to promote safer roads for all road users.

The 2008 Canberra Ride of Silence aims to:

     * remember those killed or injured whilst cycling on roads.
     * raise awareness of the need for all road users to respect one 
another and to use roads in a considerate manner.
     * promote the im****tance for cyclists and motorists to obey the 
road rules.
     * remind the community that cyclists are ordinary people who have a 
right to safety on our roads.

Where: Start and finish at Regatta Place, north of Commonwealth Avenue 
bridge.

When: Arrive at 9am for a 9.30 start.

The ride: Approx. 6 km in length at a slow pace (max 20 km/h) in a loop 
that includes part of the Parliamentary Triangle. The Ride of Silence 
will take place on open roads and participants will be expected to ride 
safely and considerately and obey all traffic laws.

Those that take part in the Ride of Silence must be aware that they do 
so at their own risk. All welcome; all you need is a bike and a helmet. 
Riders are encouraged to wear armbands: black for everyone, or red for 
those who have been injured by motorists.

The 2008 Canberra Ride of Silence is endorsed by Pedal Power ACT, 
Females in Training and ACT Veterans Cycling Club.
