THE SLEEPY CABOOSE

SIGN UP

HERE WE GO!

Please let me know which organization you supported in lieu of a race fee.
If you are unable to donate, please let me know as well, PWYC

COST

The Sleepy Caboose is free to enter and participate in. That being said, we’re strongly encouraging a sliding-scale donation of $30-100 to an organization of the participants choice. Preferably, a local organization!

Either…
– a QTBIPOC-run community organization
– an organization that is devoted to removing barriers to cycling and access to the outdoors
– a climate change or environmental conservation organization


Here’s a few organizations that we like, but feel free to pick your own:

Colour The Trails
Kickstand Community Bikeshop
Our Community Bikes
HUB Cycling
The Bike Kitchen
FVMBA
Bikepacking Roots BIPOC Bike Adventure Grant

This concept is taken directly from Evergreen Gravel Racing, who is based in Olympia, WA (Steh-Chass territory). In their words:

I encourage folks to donate in lieu of an entry fee because I think it’s important to support organizations whose work centers equity, especially equity in sport, outdoor access, and cycling, and one of the easiest ways to do that is through direct and ongoing financial support. If you’re not in a position to make a donation of that size, that’s okay, you can still participate in the race.
