Memorial ride

Twenty-one cyclists were killed in traffic accidents in New York City in 2005, up from 15 in 2004, and 13 in 2003. That made 2005 the most deadly year for bicyclists since 1999, when a record 35 died.

On Sunday we rode to memorialize the 21 cyclists killed by motor vehicles on New York City streets. For more information, see The Village Voice's "Ghost Riders" article, the announcement at Time's Up or the Visual Resistance photos.
