Despite not being terribly religious-y, a local ecumenical service similar to this would be absolutely divine. Does anyone know of a friendly pastor or church who could be interested in holding a event like this?

Blessing of the Bicycles

Good Samaritan Hospital’s 3rd Annual West Coast Blessing of the Bicycles
Tuesday, May 16 • 8 a.m. – 9:30 a.m.
(In front of Good Samaritan Hospital, 616 S. Witmer Avenue, Los Angeles 90017)

Religious leaders from different faiths will bestow blessings for safe cycling as they bless bicycles and cycling gear. They will also recite names of those injured recently in cycling accidents and ask for a moment of silence.

Cyclists are also invited to take a lap around the hospital to honor the healing in the city’s health care facilities.

Free gifts and on-site bike safety checks.

Visit http://www.goodsam.org for more information and details on how to have your loved ones honored at the event.

In the US 'different faiths' means Southern Baptist, South-eastern Baptist,
Western Baptist, South-western Baptist, South-west fundamentalist Baptist,
and Los Angeles Baptist. Nothern and Eastern Baptists are, of course,
excluded, because they are apostate.
