Climate Ride, the nation’s largest environmental charity bike ride and "climate conference on wheels," is coming to California! Climate Ride California, this September 21-25, 2010, is a fully supported 5-day bike tour from Eureka to San Francisco. We'll 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 a "climate conference on wheels." Our 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 fundraising web page, training/logistical support, and access to a nationwide network of Climate Riders. The ride includes a cycling jersey, campsites, 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 fundraises $2,400 to participate. The ride is open to 200 cyclists. Proceeds 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!
