Wellington cyclists are planning a memorial ride as a mark of respect for the two riders killed this week.
Cyclists are invited to gather at Parliament on Thursday 26 June at 3:45pm.
After a brief opportunity to speak, we will depart Parliament at 4pm, and ride along Thorndon Quay and Hutt Road to Petone Roundabout. We will pause there, then ride back to Wellington.
The ride will commemorate and honour the lives of the riders killed on 19 June.

Would it be appropriate to get permission to read the letter from the son. That letter really moved me in terms of his love for his father, his ability to celebrate what was important to his father, and manage his own obvious grief without blaming while thanking CAN.
Good idea. I'll contact him.
Good idea. I'll contact him. I've already let him know about the ride, and he hopes to make it if he's here from the UK in time.
By the way, I've sent a card to Steve Fitzgerald's family from CAN. I'm going to the funeral tomorrow morning.
