Riders will sign in and proceed in a two-up format in silence at a 12 mph procession pace to honor fallen cyclists. We will ride via Wilmer Ave , Kellogg Ave and Riverside Drive to Sawyer Point, where there will be a presentation of a ghost bike to honor Allen Williams who was killed in a hit and run in Hebron last August.

Sponsor highlight: @reserbicycle!!! Located conveniently across the river from Cincinnati, Reser Bicycle Outfitters is a staple in the Newport community. With easy commuter access, the central location serves customers throughout the Cincinnati region. In addition to everything from tuneups to major overhauls, Reser has cultivated a community of riders. Besides hosting Tuesday night rides and regularly celebrating cycling culture, they also offer espresso drinks and treats at Trailhead Coffee, a little cafe that activates the bike shop as a neighborhood hangout.
