Green Fondo California

Green Fondo is here! Green Fondo is our sustainably focused take on the Gran Fondo-style rides. We’re gathering to celebrate the planet while bringing people together to enjoy great cycling. We’ll have a cycling village near the San Francisco Bay Area where cyclists can overnight, enjoy food and drink, entertainment, and meet with new friends and thought leaders. Proceeds benefit organizations dedicated to climate, clean energy, and bike advocacy.

In 2022, 100% of participants’ fundraising will go directly to their beneficiaries. Thanks to the dedicated Climate Riders who have suppoted us on funder’s trips and our Annual Fund for allowing this to happen.

You can choose from our full list of beneficiaries and proceeds will be distributed to the Climate Ride grants program based on your beneficiary selection. You will have access to our superb personal fundraising software and the full support of our team. Participants may select their beneficiaries from our list of more than 100 extraordinary non-profit organizations.

For this 2-day event, there will be cycling mileages for all types of riders – you can choose from Grande, Medio, & Piccolo options each day. We will have several mileage options on both days of the event. (More details on the routes will be available in your ride guide.) This event style has something for everyone and provides an atmosphere where family, friends, and colleagues can all enjoy a cycling event together. Green Fondo is not timed because we want you to enjoy the bike ride the way you want to ride! There are lovely stops along the way where you can enjoy beautiful surroundings and new friends. From e-bikes to race bikes, all are welcome.
