SUMMARY:Ride of Silence - Little Rock
DESCRIPTION:​The Ride of Silence is an annual international cycling event that honors cyclists who have been injured or killed while riding on public roadways. Participants engage in a silent\, slow-paced ride—typically not exceeding 12 mph (20 km/h)—to raise awareness among motorists\, law enforcement\, and city officials about cyclists’ legal rights to share the road. ​ \nEstablished in 2003 by Chris Phelan in Dallas\, Texas\, the inaugural ride commemorated endurance cyclist Larry Schwartz\, who was fatally struck by a passing bus’s mirror. Although initially intended as a one-time event\, its poignant message resonated globally\, leading to its annual observance on the third Wednesday of May. By 2024\, the Ride of Silence had expanded to 239 locations worldwide\, encompassing 40 U.S. states\, 14 countries\, and 3 continents. \nParticipants are expected to wear helmets\, adhere to traffic laws\, and maintain silence throughout the ride\, fostering a solemn atmosphere of remembrance and advocacy. The event underscores the importance of sharing the road safely and respectfully among all users. ​
