[BBTC Ride_calendar] This year's Super Series!!
by Robert Yuschak 07 Feb '06

07 Feb '06

Hey Hey BBTC!! I have posted this year's super series calendar and I'm looking for ride leaders. Please look over the schedule and see if any of the rides listed spark your interest to help support another successful series. In addition to the current schedule we have been presented with a few more great rides to add to the series and can get them posted to the schedule as soon as we fill the leader slots for the posted rides. All rides listed with me as the leader are available. Please email me with your interested ride and we'll assist you with posting and procedures. A note on the big ride, We have created a new route and I will be closely involved with the set up and organization of the ride, but I will not be available to lead it on the day of the ride due to having already committed to working SAG for Southern Utah Parks Tour. On another note, we have begun to work on our major rides (LRRH, ULCER and SUPT) and are looking for volunteers to work on the committees organizing each event. Please email me if you desire to assist us in once again presenting some of the most successful cycling events in Utah and I will direct you to the committee chair person for the event you would like to volunteer with. Thank you for all your help and support and I look forward to working together to make the BBTC the club of choice for all recreational cyclists in Utah! Pedal Fast and Laugh Often Rob Y.

[BBTC Ride_calendar] Ride Of Silence
by Raleigh Fehr 06 Feb '06

06 Feb '06

I will be leading one ride from the mouth of Big Cottonwood to Parley's Crossing and back. If anyone is interested in adding additional locations throughout the valley and points North and South, please do so. Raleigh RIDE OF SILENCE Date: May 17, 2006 Time: 7:00 pm Where: At over 120 U.S. locations and eight other countries, and adding more daily. Join cyclists nationwide in a silent slow-paced ride (max. 12 mph/19.3 kph) in honor of those who have been injured or killed while cycling on America's public roadways. Why do we hold this ride? To HONOR those who have been injured or killed To RAISE AWARENESS that we are here To ask that we all SHARE THE ROAD THE RIDE OF SILENCE WILL NOT BE QUIET On May 17 at 7:00 PM, the Ride of Silence will begin in North America and roll across the globe. Cyclists will take to the roads in a silent procession to honor cyclists who have been killed or injured while cycling on public roadways. Although cyclists have a legal right to share the road with motorists, the motoring public often isn't aware of these rights, and sometimes not aware of the cyclists themselves. WE NEED YOUR HELP! Our goal is to make this Ride an international event, with as many cities participating. We are looking for individuals and groups to put on a local Ride of Silence. We ask that you follow the following guidelines: The Ride of Silence is a memoriam to cyclist killed while riding. This is a funeral procession, not a typical club ride. The speed should not exceed 12 miles / 19km per hour. There should be NO talking. Use hand si! gnals to point out obstacles. Please, no headphones. We ask cyclists to wear a black armband if they personally know someone killed while cycling and a red armband if they have been hurt by a vehicle while cycling. Distance - 5 to 12 miles (8 to 20 km) If you are able to host a ride, please go to our website at www.rideofsilence.org <http://www.rideofsilence.org/> and submit your location. You will also find a guide to putting on a local ride on our website. We will assist you in any way we can. ! In 2003, Chris Phelan organized the first Ride Of Silence in Dallas after endurance cyclist Larry Schwartz was hit by the mirror of a passing bus and was killed. The 2003 ride at White Rock Lake in Dallas drew 1,000 cyclists through word of mouth and email communication over a period of only ten days. There was no registration, no fees, no t-shirt. Local media reported the ride to be incredibly moving as these cyclists rode in silence, occasionally wiping away a tear or patting a friend on the back. Chris Phelan, a friend of Mr. Schwartz and the person responsible for starting this initiative, thought the ride was a one-time deal. However, as word got out other cyclists began to contact him with a desire to do the same thing in their own communities. The ride, which is being 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. Please help us honor our fallen brothers and sisters....host a ride.
