Cyclists honor riders killed in Pa. last year with "Ride of Silence" in Harrisburg

Cyclists in Harrisburg rode to the Capitol building in silence Wednesday to honor the 27 people killed on Pennsylvania roads while riding their bikes last year.
Riders took part in the "Ride of Silence" to the Capitol steps, which sported 27 white bicycles to commemorate the 27 people who died, as well as a red bike to honor those who have been injured on the road.
"It hit me emotionally because I love cycling," said participant Marie Roof. "Several of my friends had been injured, including myself, by vehicles who have struck us or maybe didn't obey all the rules of the road."
The cyclists commemorated those who lost their lives by placing roses on the white bicycles on the Capitol steps, in a way to remember them as well as to send a message to both cyclists and drivers alike to be mindful of their surroundings.
