I wasn’t able to attend the Ride of Silence, but I definitely support the concept. Below are a couple of pictures I shot on West River Drive in late April. Riley Boyle, age 6, was killed on West River Drive (Martin Luther King Jr Blvd) on May 13, 2006. This ride honored the memory of those killed in cycling accidents and hoped to elevate the importance of makes the streets safer for cyclist.
