Duke City BMX riders, parents and fans have received the below invitation to participate in a special Memorial Ride honoring cyclist that have lost thier lives on the streets and roads of NM.
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
Just wanted to send out a reminder about the memorial ride this Sunday. It will start at 4 pm from Jefferson and Central. Riders can come early and sign in at 4600 Copper NE, at High Desert Yoga. There is no fee for this event, but there are numbers that riders can wear, numbers with the names of fallen cyclists. The ride goes down Route 66, through Nob Hill, down town and Old Town, to Tiguex park. There we will have a rally where the names of the 100 New Mexico cyclists who have died in crashes with motor vehicles in the past 20 years will be read. Representatives from Senator Bingaman's office and Rep. Heinrich's office will read short statements next, followed by myself and another BikeABQ board member Ben Savoka giving short speaches. There will be music, some give aways and beverage refreshements at Tiguex park. Hope many BMX riders can join us.
