The environment is a big part of our editorial content because without it nothing else matters

​

Biking and paddling are America's favorite recreational activities and most carbon-neutral sports. Over 140 million people make them part of their daily lives. They are universal symbols for health, fitness, and non-polluting alternative recreation and transportation.

 

Until recently we didn't know how important biking (and other human-powered activities) could be for the planet until an IPCC report (Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change) appeared in 2018 in Forbes Magazine. Bicycling Could Save the Planet.  

 

SO WHY AREN'T WE?

 

We're doing our part, but we need your help. We promote (and sponsor) bike and paddle themed events as a platform to help bring action awareness about climate change, the importance of clean water, clean energy, real food and a natural healthy lifestyle, and feature businesses who stand behind their corporate sustainability statement and not as marketing tool.   

 

The following are a sampling of events we're promoting directly or sponsoring beginning in the Fall and Winter of 2022-23 in the Lake Havasu/Sedona/Prescott, AZ area. (See Club calendar for event details).

According to the Department of Transportation, if we all chose to walk or bike just half of our car trips of under a mile, we would save about $575 million in fuel costs and about 2 million metric tons of CO2 emissions per year. How simple is that? That’s like taking about 400,000 cars off the road each year
