The Netherlands knows how to set up for cycling su The Netherlands knows how to set up for cycling success! 

@cycling_embassy "The Dutch are the most physically active on earth, on average getting 12.8 hours of exercise per week... Good infrastructure in the Netherlands plays a big role in how active they are, as the average resident cycles more than 1,000 kilometers per year."

Sarah Weiffenbach is setting out on an epic 700+ miles bike-packing independent challenge on the Mountain-to-Sea Trail in North Carolina. Starting this month, Sarah will be section-biking through the three regions of North Carolina. She will experience the Blue Ridge and Appalachian Mountains, the plateau of gentle hills through Piedmont, and then finish in September 2023 in the Coastal Plains. We chatted with her about her preparation and more before she sets out on her adventure! Check it out through the link in our bio!

Rocco is taking on an Independent Challenge with Climate Ride and planning to ride 36 miles, to support the fight against climate change.

What our participants have to say

Climate Ride is an incredibly fun and rewarding way to take action while learning from all of the amazing people who are part of it.

— Karl Danz, California Ride 2017

Partnering with Climate Ride as part of Climate Rise was an amazing and rewarding experience. Took the stress of the background work behind a fundraiser, and they were there helping and supporting along the way! Would join them again in the future. 10/10
