Sponsor me in Climate Ride, a 5-day ride to benefit bikes + the environment

[_kim_]

Hi all,

In October 2011, I participated for the first time in the California Climate Ride, which is a 320-mile bicycle ride down the CA coast to benefit 25 environmental and bicycle advocacy nonprofits. Despite rainy conditions on 4/5 of the days (!!) of this year's ride, I still enjoyed it such that I have decided to do it again in 2012!

Riders get to direct they funds they raise to any combination of the designated beneficiaries, and I have chosen to support five regional bicycle advocacy groups and one national one. It's a small but powerful ride: Riders in the 2011 CA ride alone (there is also an east coast one) raised over $140,000 for the beneficiaries.

Thank you in advance!

P.S. Also note that if you donate before the end of the year, you can deduct your donation from your 2011 taxes.
