Join "An Inconvenient Ride" in Santa Fe

From the City of Santa Fe:
A Call to all Santa Feans and Others with Bikes:
Join “An Inconvenient Ride”
When: 3:30 PM on Wednesday, April 9
Where: Harry’s Roadhouse, Old Las Vegas Highway

EarthsmallThe City of Santa Fe invites Santa Fe cyclists and anyone with a bicycle to join students from Seattle on Wednesday, April 9, as they raise awareness of communities that are making a tangible difference in the environment. The students have received a ceremonial tree in Washington DC and will ride through cities, including Santa Fe, that have signed on to Seattle Mayor Greg Nickels’ climate protection program. On their journey, the students will collect over 10,000 signatures from Governors, Mayors and students in a show of support, and commitment, to protecting the environment.

The riders will be arriving in Santa Fe on Wednesday, April 9, and entering Santa Fe from Old Las Vegas Highway. The City of Santa Fe invites the community to join them for a convoy into the city starting at Harry’s Roadhouse at 3:30 PM. A police escort will be provided for safety. The ride will conclude at the Santa Fe River between Don Gaspar and Galisteo.

The City of Santa Fe would like to thank Harry’s Roadhouse for its generosity in feeding the high school student cyclists and the Santa Fe Sage Inn, which is providing complimentary rooms for the students.
