Join Bike Pensacola for the most popular bike ride in town--the Slow Ride! Each month we explore the quiet, scenic streets of Pensacola's many historic neighborhoods for a fun and leisurely ride among friends.

For March our host is Mountain Film on Tour - Pensacola. Mountainfilm on Tour brings a selection of culturally rich, adventure-packed and incredibly inspiring documentary films curated from the Mountainfilm festival in Telluride, Colorado. The films will follow the Ride at Museum Plaza. Come for the Ride and stay for the films. The Ride sponsors are The Radcliff-Schatzman Group at Morgan Stanley and Mountain Film on Tour - Pensacola.

Because most cyclists are “self taught,” each month we offer information about bicycle laws, safety tips, and addressing different bicycling skills that will help keep rides safe and enjoyable. The ride will be about one hour and ten minutes long, at a casual pace. Nobody will be “dropped” or left behind. Children must be at least 10 years of age to ride their own bicycle, and ages 10 - 16 must be accompanied by an adult. No pets are allowed on the Rides. Cyclists under 16 must wear a helmet by law; ages 16 and up helmets are recommended but are not required by law. We will enjoy a ride escort by officers of the Pensacola Police Department.

Hurricanes, wildfires, drought and other impacts of climate change are fueling anxiety among many, especially young people. Join licensed clinical psychologist Dr. Paige Spencer as she discusses eco-anxiety and a variety of techniques for treating those who are anxious about environmental and climate issues.

A recent study of 10,000 young people found that nearly 60% are ‘very worried’ or ‘extremely worried’ about climate change (https://www.nature.com/articles/d41586-021-02582-8). Dr. Spencer believes in the interconnectedness of all beings and Mother Earth, and that taking care of our local community and planet are an integral part of our personal journey toward well-being and wholeness.

This presentation is part of a regular presentation series on climate change and clean energy sponsored by 350 Pensacola. Since 2010, 350 Pensacola has worked for climate education and action as the only climate-focused organization in northwest Florida. For more information: 350pensacola@gmail.com
