Before you read on (especially the news roundup)...One spot just opened on our Grand Canyon North Rim Ride <https://t.e2ma.net/click/29kmzh/uf8l8qp/mp258v> .
If you like light backpacking be sure to check out the new hike in the White Mountains <https://t.e2ma.net/click/29kmzh/uf8l8qp/2h358v> that stays at the iconic AMC huts. We'll have
fascinating talks each night, after beautiful days on the trail.

Congratulations Green Fondo SoCal Riders!
Last weekend, we hosted a beautiful 2-day ride and we're so grateful for the participants and their fundraising efforts. Green Fondo is where fun and philanthropy meet!
* Special thanks to Erick Cedeño <https://t.e2ma.net/click/29kmzh/uf8l8qp/un658v> for his inspiring & life-changing talk under the glowing, old-growth trees (with a backing band of
croaking frogs) about riding the trail of the Buffalo Soldiers.
* Gratitude to Jenny Alejandra Morataya, of Streets For All <https://t.e2ma.net/click/29kmzh/uf8l8qp/ag758v> , for kicking off the weekend with a lively conversation about how bikes
can be a tool for positive change.
* Not only did we ride bikes, but our bike mechanics also hosted a 'how to fix your bike' session. Volunteers hosted a post-ride yoga event and art zine station, and GusTavo Guerra Vasquez
taught a lively merengue session!
Green Fondo Virginia and Green Fondo NorCal <https://t.e2ma.net/click/29kmzh/uf8l8qp/q8758v> are up next. Grab your spot!
