Jacquelyn Francis is a renowned climate scientist and the founding executive director of the Global Warming Mitigation Project.
Earlier this summer, she embarked on an incredible 600 mile e-bike ride from Salt Lake City to Sun Valley, Idaho and back. Her journey aimed to raise awareness for climate action and to promote sustainable travel, demonstrating that long distance biking is not only feasible, but also a powerful statement against carbon intensive travel methods.
Along the way she learned about the importance of community, both for climate mitigation... and navigating rural routes with questionable infrastructure.

We're fundraising!
Our fall fundraiser for All Bodies on Bikes is officially live—and we need your help! We're trying to raise $10,000 to keep growing this incredible community, making cycling accessible to everyone, no matter their size, shape, or experience level.
Your support today will help us fund more inclusive events, offer more resources, and spread the message that all bodies truly belong on bikes.
And as a special thank you, anyone who donates over 50, we'll get our custom All Bodies on Bikes x Goodr sunglasses, which are really fun. (They're named the hottest thing on two wheels. 😎)
Head to AllBodiesOnBikes.com to donate and please share with your friends!
Let's ride together and make this movement bigger and better than ever.
