Minuta molka na kolesu
19.5.2010 bo po celem svetu potekala globalna akcija “Minuta molka na kolesu” (Ride of Silence).
Namen tega dogodka je:
- Spomin na vse, ki so bili poškodovani ali ubiti na kolesu med kolesarjenjem.
- Da se dvigne zavedanje o kolesarjih na cesti.
- Prosimo ostale da delijo cesto z nami
Nedavna kolesarska žrtev na slovenskih cestah je bil mag. Aleš Žajdela, predsednik uprave Abanke, ki je tragično preminil 30.4. letos. Po poročanju policije je voznik tovornjaka zavijal desno in s tem zaprl pot kolesarju ter ga povozil.
The Ride of Silence…
Tonight we number many but ride as one
In honor of those not with us, friends, mothers, fathers, sisters, sons
With helmets on tight and heads down low,
We ride in silence, cautious and slow
The wheels start spinning in the lead pack
But tonight we ride and no one attacks
The dark sunglasses cover our tears
Remembering those we held so dear
Tonight’s ride is to make others aware
The road is there for all to share
To those not with us or by our side,
May God be your partner on your final ride
