Next Wednesday, 16 May, cyclists in cities all over the world will ride together in memory of cyclists killed and injured on the roads. The Ride of Silence also gently reminds the public that we all deserve respect and consideration.

Hong Kong has seen tragedy only this week with the death of seven-year old Cheng Kim. A few weeks ago Leung Yiu-cho was killed by a reckless minibus driver in Yuen Long. Before that it was 12-year-old Kam Ho-wah, also in Yuen Long. How many more will there be? Or might there not be, if people were more alert to cyclists?

Please encourage your club members and all cycling friends to come and join the Hong Kong Ride of Silence, to show we care and we remember.

Meet:
7.30pm, Wednesday, 16 May
Tsim Sha Tsui promenade clock tower
Duration: approx one hour

Wear black, or a black armband, if possible.

Please come, and please tell other cyclists you know.

您好，

下一個星期三，五月十六日，全世界的單車人士會為紀念在馬路上受傷及被殺害的單車人士而騎行。此沉默的騎行同時喚醒公眾對單車人士的尊重與關注。

香港在這一個星期就見証了七歲的鄭劍的死亡悲劇。數週前梁耀祖在元朗被魯莽的小巴司機撞死。在此之前是十二歲的金濠樺，亦是在元朗。還會有多少宗？若人們可提高對單車的警覺性，或者不會再發生同類悲劇？

請鼓勵您的會員們和單車朋友們齊來參加香港沉默的騎行，展示出我們的關心和懷念。


會合地方
五月十六日，星期三，七點半
尖沙咀海旁鐘樓
需時: 大約一小時

如可能的話，請穿黑色衣服或佩戴黑色臂帶

希望您可以出席參與和通知其他駕駛單車人士。
