Critical Mass Memorial Bike Ride
Government Center
101 NW First St
Downtown Miami
Our friend Rydel over at Miami Bike Scene is organizing a very special Critical Mass ride this month. This ride will be dedicated to the memory of Rodolfo Rojo, a 17 y/o who was killed by a speeding car on October 30th, 2009. Rodolfo was planning on attending his first Critical Mass (Halloween) on the date the tragedy took place. Unfortunately this young man’s life was cut short by a careless driver. Please join us on this memorial ride where we’ll be stopping by the scene of the accident, a ghost bike will be placed for Rodolfo at this location. My sincere condolences to his mother Claudia Fernandez and siblings who will be joining us on the ride.
The ride will head north on Biscayne Blvd towards Miami Shores & surrounding areas. The group will pass through Downtown, Edgewater, Design District, Little Haiti, Upper East Side and Miami Shores. 20 miles total.
Invite all your friends with bicycles. This is a night ride so please bring lights for safety!

I won’t be in town, but I certainly will be there in spirit.
Rudy, my big brother, I love you with all my heart and I miss you so much. You were such a kind and giving soul. You always made me feel so happy. I can’t stop thinking about you. I will love you forever and ever and nothing or no one will ever change that. This pain I feel eats away at my soul. Even though you were six years older than me, I always felt close to you.
I love you and I miss you.
Your Little Sister,
Emilia
Rodolfo was my older brother. He always knew how to make me laugh. He had such a great spirit, always living each day with a smile on his face and laughing. Even when he made me mad, he would always cheer me up again. He was so happy with his new bike and bragging about how muscular his legs were. The pain we feel is unexplainable.
I love you bro and I will miss you forever.
Your sister Ana
