See you at Earth Ride on March 28
Carbon Planet is very excited to be supporting Earth Ride this year. On 28 March the city of Adelaide will be the scene of one of the largest gatherings of cyclists anywhere in the country. Indeed I doubt there is a better cycling city in Australia than Adelaide.
Earth Ride Adelaide 2010 is a FREE community event, held in conjunction with the global Earth Hour, aimed at promoting environmental sustainability, including sustainable transport options and encouraging behavioural change among patrons.
Incorporating the outer city squares, Earth Ride – Adelaide 2010 will take bike riders on a car free, entertaining and educational journey through the city streets in support of Earth Hour.
All five squares in the CBD will be themed (Water/Air/Earth/Fire) to coincide with and support the vision of Earth Ride – Adelaide 2010. Victoria Square will have a series of stalls that will be set up to allow participants to meander and learn, not only about the many environmental challenges facing their community (and the world as a whole) but to also take away solutions that will empower each individual to make a small but significant difference.
SA Police will be conducting a rolling road closure for the bike ride, meaning that the ride will take 60 to 90 minutes (ride starting at 10:30am and is expected to finish at midday), giving the riders and other patrons more time to spend in the event village at Victoria Square.
Earth Ride Adelaide 2010 is an event that informs, entertains and motivates Adelaide’s growing community… It’s family-oriented, community-friendly fun for all; big and small, young and old!
Carbon Planet is supporting Earth Ride as part of its Operation: Coolenation® primary schools education programme.
