Sylvia Bingham Memorial Bike Ride

In loving memory of our friend, family member, and lover Sylvia, over
150 cyclists gathered at her former home on West 11th in Tremont and
rode to her former employer Hard Hatted Women on Prospect. The silent
memorial ride was graced with a police escort and stopped briefly to
place flowers at the white "ghost bike" which was customarily placed
at the site ofthe accident by the local bike safety and advocacy
organization, Ohio City Bike Co-Op located on Columbus Rd in the
flats. A heartfelt thanks go out to those who helped make this a great
tribute and to all those who helped us pay homage to a wonderful young
woman.
