Entries tagged: Ride Of A Lifetime

There’s just three weeks left to register and raise funds to participate in the ride of a lifetime!

Climate Ride is a 5-day, fully-supported bicycle ride from Fortuna to San Francisco under towering redwoods, through the Russian River Wine Country, and along the Pacific Coast Bicycle Route; one of the most scenic coastlines in the world. But there’s meaning to this magnificent tour. The ride, Oct 2-6, is the nation’s largest environmental cycling event and “green conference on wheels,” promoting awareness about and action to address climate change. Riders raise funds that are directed to organizations that work to protect the climate and promote sustainable transportation — like the Alliance!

Sign up for $75 and then raise at least $2,400 by September 23 and choose which organization you’ll raise money for. Registrants can direct their fundraising toward multiple beneficiaries, too. That means, you can ride for, say, the San Francisco Bicycle Coalition, Transportation Alternatives or other great Alliance member organizations, and still direct a portion of your dollars to support the Alliance.

Anyone who signs up for the ride gets to choose which organization they will raise money for — and you can choose the Alliance! Registrants can direct their fundraising toward multiple beneficiaries, too. That means, you can ride for, say, the San Francisco Bicycle Coalition, Transportation Alternatives or other great Alliance member organizations and still direct a portion of your dollars to support the Alliance.

The organizers have opened up the beneficiary choices so now you can choose to support the Alliance specifically with your fundraising dollars.
