A friend invited me to participate and it was evident from the start that there is a strong, welcoming and encouraging community within Climate Ride. We were a party of 29 riders extremely well supported by the Climate Ride crew who covered so many skill sets across the team. We were fed extremely well and supported effortlessly on the road so that everybody had the support whenever they needed it. I was sad to say goodbye. A wonderful bubble of loveliness and some awesome memories traveling down the North Coast from Fortuna to San Francisco, with tail winds and mostly blazing sunshine.
