If 100,000 people sign up to follow their 42Ride across the U.S. this summer on Twitter, http://twitter.com/WeLikeBike42 42BELOW will make a $42K donation to the Alliance for Biking & Walking. I wanted to write to each of you with a reminder of the details, or you can also find them at www.PeoplePoweredMovement.org/42belowhttp://www.peoplepoweredmovement.org/42below .

The 42Ride began in Mid-June, by sending 42 cyclists from New York, south to Philadelphia, and then they split in to two groups of 21 riders heading westwards, one touring the north and one touring the south. Participants will pedal an impressive total of 4,017 miles across the country from New York City to Los Angeles, witnessing some of the most beautiful scenery the country has to offer.

The Alliance is asking all our members, supporters, and biking enthusiasts to support biking and walking by signing up to follow the 42Ride on twitter at http://twitter.com/WeLikeBike42. In addition, local Alliance groups are encourage to work with the 42 Ride administrators to take part in events that are coming to your neighborhood.
