What is Go Greenbelt! all about?
The ride was created in 1990 by Greenbelt Alliance staff member Jim Sayer as a part of the Earth Day celebrations. What better way to dedicate ourselves to protecting the earth than riding through the Bay Area’s spectacular greenbelt-celebrating the beauty and productivity of our open lands, and calling attention to lands at risk of sprawl development. Our route climbs most of the Bay Area’s major peaks, providing unparalleled views of the Bay Area. We also traverse the Bay Area’s lightly traveled scenic back roads.
