Greetings, Friends.  It's Spring!  And not only are we blessed with 
warmer weather, longer days, and more sunlight, the Annual 
International Ride of Silence is fast approaching.  Please save the 
date.  Put Wednesday, May 16th, at 7:00 p.m. on your calendar.  Last 
year, we had a great turnout and we hope to raise the number several 
fold this year!

We have handouts and announcements on our local website, 
www.geocities.com/RideOfSilence.  They are six to a page and work well 
to get the word out.  Drop 'em off at bike stores and give 'em to 
fellow riders. (I'm still working on a flyer to ask bicycle stores to 
post in their windows.  If anyone is not graphically-challenged and 
would like help, please give me a shout.)

The international website is www.rideofsilence.org.

Also, would any of you who belong to bike clubs please forward the 
following announcements to the persons responsible for putting 
together the newsletters/calendars/websites?

BICYCLISTS FROM ALL OVER SAN DIEGO COUNTY will take to the streets of 
downtown San Diego on Wednesday, May 16th, 2007, at 7:00 p.m. in a 
Ride of Silence to honor bicycle riders who have been injured or 
killed while riding on San Diego County's public roadways, as well as 
raise awareness of bicyclists' rights.  Gathering at the intersection 
of India and Washington Streets, the bike riders will don black 
armbands and embark on a silent, slow speed bike ride through Old Town 
and downtown San Diego. 

Many Thanks to Everyone Who Attended Last Year -- Let's Make This Year 
Even Better!

Respectfully submitted,

Frank Paiano
