Ride of Silence - May 15, 2024 - One day. One time. World wide.
Join the annual Ride of Silence, an organized annual cycling procession honoring those that have been injured or killed. The goal is to raise awareness that we are here, and to ask that we all share the road.
Save the date for the 2025 Chicago Ride Of Silence - May 21, 2025
Our route typically passes several Ghost Bikes, which are powerful memorials to fallen cyclists created by painting a bicycle white and placing it at or near the site of the cyclist’s death.
DATE: May 15, 2024 (always the 3rd Wednesday of May)
TIME: Gather at 6:00 pm
WHERE: Hundreds of locations world wide; Dickens Greenway Plaza in Lincoln Park, Chicago

Wherever you ride, we ride in unity.

Hi Everyone... last minute need for a ghost bike to tow in procession with us tomorrow night. Anyone able to help?
This bike would represent all fallen riders who either do not have bikes and whose bikes are not part of our route.
