Kansas City Ghost Bikes


Sadly over the years, the Greater Kansas City Bicycle Federation and friends, have been obligated to put up too many ghostbikes, in honor of those who have fallen in KC streets. Unforunately these are only a few of more than 20 who have been killed the past 5 yrs. May we never have to put up another ghost bike in Kansas City. Farewell comrades.
