'Ride of Silence' commemorating cyclists in Kalamazoo accident planned for Wednesday in Island Park
In the wake of five cyclists being killed and four injured in an accident near Kalamazoo on June 7, the Central Michigan for LIVESTRONG Foundation is hosting a unified "Ride of Silence" on June 15.
The group of bicyclists, which included the mother of a Central Michigan University student-athlete, was struck by a pickup truck on a road in Cooper Township, just 30 minutes into their weekly group ride last Tuesday.
Wednesday's ride begins at 6 p.m. in Island Park in Downtown Mount Pleasant. Island Park is located at 331 N. Main St.
