Number of RofS Locations Growing
That's right! We're growing!
According to our web master, Tim Potter, we're ahead of last year's pace for locations. Yaaaaaaaaaay!
He wrote on Monday, Mar 28, "As of today we're at 150 locations. A year ago today, 88 locations."
J Steve from Seattle piggy-backed on that with this: "We're 70% ahead of same time last year. Previous calculation had us @ 56% ahead of same time last year. This looks like a notable curve folks. At this rate (total 300+ last year...) having 450 locations (a very conservative 50% growth) is likely, and breaking 600 is possible. 'nuff said.
7 weeks to go!

New Stickers
March 24, 2011
Check it out!
We've got Ride Of Silence stickers to put on your bike, helmet, car, computer, guitar,...where ever!
You can see what it looks like to the left. These are small (5 cm), so they'll fit any where, tastefully.
We're doing this in bulk. For 2,000 stickers, it's $160, plus shipping. Pass them out to your club or at the ride, on May 18.
Contact our Ride Of Silence Board member, Ben Valin at: rideofsilence.sg@gmail.com.
Other news:
We are almost 8 weeks out before the ride and already we're hitting 150 locations. It's going to be a good year! Organizers, get on the web site and list your ride. People who WANT to be a host (it's very easy), go to the web site menu on the left side, and list the ride YOU want to do.
So long as the distance is between 8-12 miles (12-20k), you cycle no faster than 12 mph (20kph), start at 7 PM, and ride in silence, you can join us. List it and it's that easy.
Let the silence roar!!

"Just wanted to let everyone know that we broke 100 events today. Last year we were at 65 confirmed events on this day. We're on a good roll for another record breaking year folks!"
To register your site, go to: http://rideofsilence.org/addlocation.php. You don't have to have all the details ironed out until much closer to the ride date (May 18). You can come back and fill in the particulars at a later date.
You're doing great folks! You make me proud!
