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

    To disable ads, please log-in.

    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.

    To find out more or sponsor me, please visit this page:

    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.

    Forgot to mention that I'll be fundraising through August 31, 2012. (Also, I've added two more bike advocacy beneficiaries.) Thanks!

    About three weeks to go!

    Hi,
    I just wanted to add a likely last bump to this post. My Climate Ride fundraising deadline is about three weeks away, and I have $780 to go. I was also laid off in June (I've got a continued UI claim form right here!). I would be VERY grateful for any support! Donations go to support seven bicycle advocacy nonprofits, including a handful on the east and west coasts and the League of American Bicyclists. The overall Climate Ride event supports many more environmental and bicycle advocacy nonprofits. My page is here:

    Thank you!
