 Orange County To HONOR those who have been injured or killed To RAISE AWARENESS that we are here To ask that we all SHARE THE ROAD Date: Wednesday, May 14, 2025 "Think Globally - Act Locally"
Consider coordinating a ride in your town town to get seen by more people in more neighborhoods, and make it easier to get more riders to participate, without creating even more vehicle traffic crossing OC to get to a Ride of Silece! Contact us for help & being listed here: Help in coordinating is offered here: http://www.rideofsilence.org/resources.php At 7 pm Local
Time we will join other communities across the planet in
having then cue up for a 7 pm slow paced, single file, silent commemoration to the riders who are no longer with us, especially those who were disabled or killed in traffic. we will share this hour with each other, and know that thousands across the planet will also have marked the hour in their own time zone; but also raise awareness among the many local motorists who will be witnesses of our sombre parade. so wear your reflective & HiVis day glow, & have plenty of reflectors & lights... LIGHTS AND REFLECTORS - CVC 21201(d) In case you don't know, California law requires bicycles to have lights & reflectors after dusk - even on bike ways and sidewalks. Many run extra lights for safety and especially this night to draw even more attention to our rolling march...   HELMETS - CVC 21212 Helmets are required in California by all riders and passengers under 18 and on anyone operating a Type 3 28 mph eBike. Helmets are strongly recommended for all riders. Some Rides of Silence locations do require helmets for ALL riders. ARM BANDS Optional tradition: Many wear an arm band; Black in solidarity - or Red if you have been injured in an incident with a motorist. (Inexpensive head / wrist band sets or cut up tube socks work well...)
Please let us know of any other Rides of Silence in Orange County so we can add them here and send us comments & photos if you ride or see us...
