'Solidarity ride' honors 3 cyclists killed this year in Philadelphia

PHILADELPHIA (WPVI) -- A bike ride through Philadelphia's Fairmount Park honored several cyclists that were recently killed while biking in the city.

Sunday's "solidarity ride" was organized by the family of Will Lindsay, one of three men kill in the past month.
