Thanks to all who attended the 4th Biking for Vallarta Sunday Ride on June 13th. As we've mentioned before, it is important to take action and be part of the great changes needed to preserve our environment.
For those who were unable to attend, we invite you to join us for the En bici por Vallarta Paseos Dominicales, which take place on the second Sunday of every month. For safety's sake these rides will be cancelled in case of rain.
We gladly invite you to participate in the 2nd "Paseo Nocturno en Bici por Vallarta" (Biking for Vallarta Night Ride), which is scheduled to take place on Saturday, June 19th at 7:00 pm.
The meeting point is el Parque Lineal de la Ribera Pitillal (in front of Soriana.) From there we will ride to la Plaza de la Hermandad, situated on the beach end of San Salvador street, between Buenaventura Grand Hotel & Spa and Villa Premiere Hotel & Spa in downtown Puerto Vallarta, where the Guadalajara Youth Symphony Orchestra will be performing a free classical music concert presented by Vía Cultural.
The concert, entitled "Mexico y Sus Sones," will begin at 8:30 and end at 9:30 pm. At approximately 10 pm, we will mount our bikes for the ride back to the point of departure.
As the success of this event depends on a community effort to ensure the safety of both cyclists and motorists, it is important to emphasize that participating bicyclists will be riding along this route after dark, so we ask that anyone driving their cars along these streets on the night of Saturday, June 19th to be watchful and to give the riders a wide berth.
At the same time, participating cyclists should be prudent, stay together, respect all traffic signs and signals, and wear florescent markers or clothing to ensure their own, as well as the automobile drivers' safety. We also stress the importance of riding helmets and safety gear for all participating children.
Don't forget to wear brightly colored clothes, so that motorists can see us easily at night, we also suggest that you bring along bright and sonorous objects (neon lights, trumpets, whistles, etc.) As we are coming into the rainy season, for the safety of all, in case of rain the ride will not take place.
Regardless of the weather, please take every precaution you consider necessary for any eventuality. Remember that this is an excellent exercise where everyone has the opportunity to ride safely and enjoy Biking for (and through) Vallarta!
If you need help with something basic to repair your bike, we will be at the park at 6:30 pm to lend a hand. If you do not have a bike and want to participate, send an email to mundoceiba(at)gmail.com.
If you have any questions, suggestions, or are interested in participating or supporting the movement in any way, please contact Roberto Angel P. Zepeda at mundoceiba(at)gmail.com.
