Support Clean Air-Cool Planet on Climate Ride NYC-DC 2012!
By Amanda Sayut, Development Officer, Clean Air-Cool Planet
You’re invited to join Climate Ride, an incredible 5-day bicycle ride in from New York City to Washington DC and the best part is that you can help Clean Air-Cool Planet while you’re doing it!
Climate Ride NYC-DC 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 is more than a bike trip – it’s an inspiring journey with 150 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 speakers 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 Clean Air-Cool Planet’s mission. Climate Ride has opened up the beneficiary choices so now you can choose to support Clean Air-Cool Planet 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 NYC-DC 2012 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, bike mechanics, medics, and massage therapists. 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. The best bet is to sign up early not only so you have time to fundraise and train, but also because spots fill up!
