Join Climate Ride California & Support Clean Energy & Bicycle Advocacy -- September 21-25, 2010
by Michael Smith (Veshengro)
Climate Ride, the United States' largest environmental charity bike ride and "climate conference on wheels," is coming to California!
Climate Ride California, from September 21-25, 2010, is a fully supported 5-day bike tour from Eureka to San Francisco.
It will cover 320 miles of stunning coastline, towering redwoods, and picturesque wine country, and conclude our journey in Golden Gate Park at New Belgium Brewery's Tour de Fat bicycle festival!
Not only an incredible bike tour, Climate Ride is also a "climate conference on wheels."
The Expert Speaker Series brings leading authorities from business, government, and the non-profit world into camp each night to inspire, educate, and discuss a variety of topics related to sustainability and a clean energy economy.
Registration includes your own personal fund-raising web page, training/logistical support, and access to a nationwide network of Climate Riders.
The ride includes a cycling jersey, camp sites, luggage transfer, road support (all hybrid, electric or veggie-powered!), meals, bike mechanics, bike guides, and the nightly Expert Speaker Series.
Registration is $75 and each rider fund-raises $2,400 to participate.
The ride is open to 200 cyclists, with the proceeds going to support Rails-to-Trails Conservancy, Green America, and 1Sky.
Don't miss this opportunity to ride for clean energy, the climate crisis, and pedal power!
