The Ride of Silence is an international event held each year on the 3rd Wednesday in May. It is a short, silent procession raising awareness for those who have been killed or injured while cycling on public roadways.
Brevard County will hold its own Ride of Silence as part of the World Day of Remembrance, a day to remember all people killed and seriously injured on the roads. The event will be on Sunday November 15, starting at the Brevard County Courthouse Complex on Fran Jameson Way in Melbourne, FL.
We will assemble at 4:00 so that we are ready to roll at 4:15. We will proceed slowly (12 mph or less) on a 5-mile route that leaves from 2725 Judge Fran Jamieson Way, Melbourne, FL and returns to the same location to gather at the Reflection Pond. The World Day of Remembrance for Road Traffic Victims (WDoR) is a moment to pause, remember, and recommit to safer streets for every road user: walkers, cyclists, drivers, motorcyclists and passengers. This Brevard County Community Gathering is hosted by the Space Coast Transportation Planning Organization (SCTPO). We will return to the Courthouse for the observance, which will start at 5:00.
