Maui Memorial Ride @ Kihei, Maui

Maui will be hosting a Memorial Ride as part of the global Ride of Silence movement, which takes place in hundreds of locations every year to honor cyclists who have been hit or killed while riding on public roadways. We’ll be riding in silence along the bike path beginning in Kihei for a total of 13.7 miles. Following the ride, we’ll gather for refreshments and advocacy. Refreshments will be compliments of Robin Hagen, Karl Hagen’s wife, in commemoration of Karl and all riders who have lost their lives nationwide and on Maui.

Ride of Silence history:
In 2003, Chris Phelan organized the first Ride of Silence in Dallas after endurance cyclist Larry Schwartz was hit by the mirror of a passing bus and was killed. The memorial ride took place at White Rock Lake in Dallas, drawing 1,000 cyclists through word of mouth and email communication over a period of only ten days. There was no registration and no fees. Local media reported the ride to be incredibly moving as these cyclists rode in silence, occasionally wiping away a tear or patting a friend on the back. Although the ride was originally intended to be a one-time event, as word continued to spread more cyclists began to contact Phelan with a desire to do organize something similar in their own communities. The official 2021 Ride of Silence date is May 18, however we are hosting ours on a Saturday so that more people are able to join us. Learn more: http://www.rideofsilence.org/
