There is no brochure, no sponsors, no registration fees and no t-shirt. The ride, which is held during Bike Safety month, aims to raise the awareness of motorists, police and city officials that cyclists
have a legal right to the public roadways. The ride is also a chance to show respect for those who have been killed or injured.</SPAN><p>
