Ghost Bike for Christopher Greathouse, age 12, will be placed on November 11th at 4:00PM.

 

He was killed on June 15th, 2018 while bicycling with his brother, Stanley.  The crash happened at Moon Street and Los Arboles Avenue, just south of Candelaria Drive in the North East Heights.

 

Duke City Wheelmen will help the family place a ghost bike made by Christopher’s brothers Stanley and Anthony.  A metal plaque will be placed that has Christopher’s picture printed on it.

 

The family has stated that all are welcome at the ceremony where they will place the Ghost Bike at the scene of the crash and honor Christopher’s life. 

 

Ghost Bikes are bicycles painted white, placed where a cyclist has died.  All too often, the cause of the death is a crash with a motor vehicle.  They serve to remind us of the importance of driving attentively, the value of human life, and the joy that riding a bicycle can bring to young and old alike.

 

Please join us for this Ghost Bike placement.
