September 26–30th, the Climate Riders will pedal 300 miles from New York City to Washington D.C. Along the way, expert speakers will educate and inspire Climate Riders about the science, the policies and the solutions to the climate crisis. Our riders and the communities we pass through will learn that our government, businesses, and each individual American will benefit from a cleaner, healthier climate. This is a unique event—a fundraiser and climate conference on wheels. Climate Riders must pay a $100 registration fee and raise $2400 in order to participate; all proceeds go to Focus the Nation, Rails-to-Trails Conservancy, and Clean Air – Cool Planet
