Gabrielle "Gabby" Giffords and was the largest in LAB history. At the beginning of the ride, Executive Director Andy Clarke held a moment of silence for all the victims of the Tuscon shootings and riders wore flags, pins and bracelets in their honor.

The National Bike Summit begins tomorrow, bringing together an estimated 750 cycling advocates. They’ll hear from NYCDOT Chief Janette Sadik-Khan, Transportation Secretary Ray LaHood, and Interior Secretary Ken Salazar, and they’ll descend on Congress in droves, plastic bike pins fastened to their lapels, to deliver a message about safe cycling access.
