The Ride of Silence, also referred to as the Tour du Silence, commemorated cyclists that have been killed on roads in Quebec on Wednesday evening. This was the 14th edition of the event that involves 22 participating cities in the province.

“We’re going to hold our helmets, raise them high around like five minutes before the start just to make sure we all think about those who lost their lives,” said Marc-Antoine Desjardins, the organizer for the Ride of Silence.
