2022 Ride of Silence

The International Ride of Silence is held on the third Wednesday of May every year. The ride honors vulnerable road users who have been injured or killed by traffic violence while bicycling, raises awareness that bicyclists have a legal right to use the road, and reminds motorists to respectfully share the road with all users.

The 2023 Ride of Silence will occur on May 17th at 7 pm at Frazier McEwen Park in Tullahoma.

Enjoy these photos of the Highland Rim Bicycle Club’s participation in this event.

We also have video of the ceremonies before the riders departed.
