Support Climate Counts on Climate Ride NYC-DC or California 2013!

You’re invited to join us on one of the Climate Rides, either the incredible 5-day bicycle ride from New York City to Washington DC or the epic 5-day pedaling adventure in California. The best part is that you can help Climate Counts while you’re doing it! Read on if you want to learn how to support the climate movement and use your pedal power for good.

Climate Ride NYC-DC (Sept. 21-25, 2013) is a grand cycling adventure that connects two of the nation’s most important cities – New York and Washington, DC – by bicycle. The ride begins with an exciting departure from Manhattan by ferry, then travels through charming towns in rural New Jersey and Amish Country. The finale is a hero’s welcome and rally at the steps of the US Capitol.

Climate Ride California (May 19-23, 2013) 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.

Climate Ride is more than a bike trip – it’s an inspiring journey with 200 like-minded people who are united by their passion for sustainability, renewable energy, and bicycles - the ultimate carbon-free form of transportation. Climate Ride also features an acclaimed nightly speaker series, known as the ‘green conference on wheels,’ where we hear from bright minds in policy, advocacy and innovation.

Everyone who has participated in Climate Ride raves about the tour as a ‘life-changing’ and ‘eye-opening’ experience. What is even better is that you can enjoy this great event, while at the same time helping to support Climate Counts’ mission. Climate Ride has opened up the beneficiary choices so now you can choose to support Climate Counts specifically with your fundraising dollars. If you select us as your beneficiary when you register we will be the recipient of the funds you raise, which means our efforts will gain even more traction in the future.

Registration for Climate Ride  is $75 (which includes a beautiful jersey and more), and then you raise at least $2400 to participate in the five-day, all-inclusive event. The ride is fully-supported by a team of talented leader-hosts and bike mechanics. Climate Ride is with you every step of the way to help with fundraising and training. Climate Ride is also one of the 'greenest' multi-day charity ride events in the world.

When you sign up, you’ll be joining many other people who want to do something to help create a better future for us all. Climate Ride is a great way to get involved and experience an amazing adventure, powered by your own energy. Sign up as soon as you can to secure your spot on the ride!
