Memorial Ride & Ghost Bike dedication for Meg Felice Charlop

Please join Transportation Alternatives and the Montefiore School
Health Program as we ride in memory of Meg Felice Charlop and dedicate
her ghost bike on Saturday, April 10th.

Meg was killed on
March 17th while riding her bicycle to work in East Tremont in the
Bronx. She devoted her entire life to helping New Yorkers fight for
health, dignity and a better future. She was a respected colleague of
Transportation Alternatives and the Montefiore community for many
years, a devoted mother, and a wonderful, caring woman. She is deeply
missed. Join us as we honor her.
