BIKE: Long ride for a cause

[Thorne]

SUMMER BIKE RIDE AGAINST NUCLEAR TESTING [from Bike Chain Response]

This summer Bike Chain Response is organising (sic) an interfaith bike ride
from the Nevada Test Site to Los Alamos National Laboratory to raise awareness
of alternative modes of transportation, to raise awareness of the tragedy of
the nuclear weapons industry and to create a dialogue with scientists at Los
Alamos National Laboratory. Bike Chain Response is striving for expanded use
of healthy alternative energy/power sources, nuclear abolition, open dialogue
with nuclear industry folks, and spirituality of nonviolence and peacemaking.
   They will start the approximately 800-mile bike ride on Sunday, June 19,
2005 at the Nevada Test Site, which has seen more than four decades of nuclear
weapons testing. The bike ride will end on Sunday July 17 at the Los Alamos
National Laboratory in New Mexico. Bike Chain Response is looking for support
for this initiative. Volunteers and donations of organic food are welcome.

That's the announcement.  I'm not sure how this will "open dialogue," but
that's a question for the organizers.  Some nice countryside to see there.
