No idea about the red armbands... fabric store remnants?

Please print out fliers (double-sided) and distribute to passing motorists and pedestrians when they ask what the ride is all about. Remember, we ride in silence, so these handouts are a great tool!

Also -- we need one pedicabber to ride with our Ride of Silence banner!

And -- any non-riders with a camera? You can help by taking photos of ride. Contact me if you're interested -- via Chainlink or directly at rideofsilence.chicago@gmail.com

Gary... that's awesome. I've asked for similar proclamations (from our mayor, governor and several senators) in support of the Chicago Ride and all state-wide Rides of Silence to be issued. We'll see what happens.

The Village of Arlington Heights has issued a proclamation in support of the Ride of Silence. See the proclamation on my page http://www.thechainlink.org/profile/GaryGilbert

Have you heard the latest? According to national event organizers:

"A quick look shows we're currently at 262 rides, in 16 countries, with more locations to be put up. I’ve said this many times, but, I am truly amazed at its growth. I never imagined it nor did anyone else back in 2003. I will continue to say this because it should humble all of us where we started and where this ride is today."

As Gary wrote in a message to a few cycling clubs and I'll reiterate here: "I challenge each one of you to participate. Make this ride a personal contribution to the cycling world."

Together we will ride in silence. Let the silence roar.

Hey everyone. We're only 6 days away from the 2009 event. Please join us in Chicago, Arlington Heights, Joliet, Downers Grove, Evanston or even Peoria. I want to publically thank Elizabeth for all her work on this to make it happen. We're hoping for a big crowd this year in Chicago and Arlington Heights and it wouldn't happen without her help. It is a somber event where we can reflect on others who have been killed or injured while cycling, whether they be racers, messengers, commuters, recreational riders, mountain bikers or simply take a cruise around the neighborhood. Let the silence roar. Gary

Now available from our webpage -- print out double-sided fliers to pass out. Fliers print 6 per page.

Tell those other cyclists you pass on the road to join. Laminate and stick in your spokes!
