Ride
2 Days – 136 miles
Craving for long miles or looking for a challenge? Ride both days of the pilgrimage. There are multiple community rides to help you train.
Ride & Volunteer
Best of both!
Ride one day and volunteer the other. This is a great option for those looking for a lower mileage while remaining fully immersed in the pilgrimage.
Donations
Food & Item:
We rely on food donations every year to ensure everyone is well-fed on the pilgrimage. It’s a lot of calories to burn! Sign up on the spreadsheet for the food items and supplies that you will bring.
When you arrive at the pilgrimage on Saturday morning be sure to label each item as indicated in the donation list so it makes it to the designated team.
Dana:
This is where we need your help in making this event a success. Imagine the expenses for the rental truck, mileage, gas, campground reservations for 130 people, insurance, permits, porta-potties, lunch, donations to the monasteries in the end and various other expenses. We can do it!
The bus back home
Registering for the Shuttle Bus Home:
After the closing ceremony on Sunday, an optional charter bus takes riders and volunteers back to Spirit Rock while their bicycles travel safely on the gear truck. It is a relaxing way to get home with no stress about logistics. If you don’t take the bus, you must plan your own way home from Redwood Valley.
DharmaWheels freely offers seats on the buses. There is no cost to pilgrims, you simply request a seat during registration. Why do we take on this big expense? Because generosity is the pilgrimage keystone.
