#caliroots — Public Fediverse posts

1/2 We biked in to First Presbyterian Church in Monterey today for the ordination ceremony for Cory Pina, Curator for Spiritual Life at All Saints Day School in Carmel Valley. Cory has volunteered many hours to boost Bicycling Monterey’s WordPress skills.

A big highlight of today’s ride came from our swinging by #CaliRoots to see how packed the bike valet station was today (surprise—not full at all). But the joy of that stop was meeting Carlos (pictured), who was doing Cali Roots volunteering nearby. He does road and mountain biking and is a bike-to-work commuter, using the Monterey-Salinas Transit bike-and-ride option to get to work from his Soledad home. We had a great chat about e-bikes, e-motos, and more, and we hope to rope this cool guy in as a bike advocacy voice for Salinas Valley residents, e.g., on TAMC’s bike-ped committee. https://bikemonterey.org/monthly-meetings-tamc-bicycle-pedestrian-facilities-advisory-committee-public-welcome.html

Going to Cali Roots May 22-24, 2026 in #Monterey? Bike or skate there and make use of free valet station. Remember lights/reflectors: https://bikemonterey.org/bike-valet-at-california-roots-festival.html

Going to Cali Roots May 22-24, 2026 in #Monterey? Bike or skate there and make use of free valet station.

Unlike prior years, on Sat afternoon, May 23, valet station was barely being used (plenty of room for more bikes). Remember lights/reflectors: https://bikemonterey.org/bike-valet-at-california-roots-festival.html

Not seeing any activity on Mastodon (this instance anyway) about #CaliRoots #CaliforniaRootsFestival happening May 24-26 in #Monterey. But we’re here to encourage Cali Roots goers to bike, skate, scoot, or walk there. Free bike/skate valet service (aka #ActiveTransport valet service) is again available. https://bikemonterey.org/bike-valet-at-california-roots-festival.html

We also appreciate Cali Roots other sustainability efforts—and #MontereyCountyNow (formerly #MontereyCountyWeekly ) providing an update on those efforts. https://www.montereycountynow.com/news/cover_collections/cali-roots-went-green-more-than-a-decade-ago-and-the-results-speak-for-themselves/article_e61e5b2a-1885-11ef-aa3f-43780a9f452b.html We especially appreciate that as we recall the plastic and other trash that littered the grounds when we last attended, in 2012. (Hiss boo to folks who don’t pack it out—or at least take it to an on-site bin.)

We dig the bicycle-powered stage at #NewportFolk Festival. Our daughter is there again this year, and wherever she goes, she has an eye out for bicycles, to share bike buzz with us. She sent us this video clip from Newport today: #IlliterateLight

Here's a story about the NFF bike stage written by Ryan Belmore: "Illiterate Light bringing their bicycle-powered stage back to Newport Folk Festival" - https://whatsupnewp.com/2023/07/illiterate-light-bringing-their-bicycle-powered-stage-back-to-newport-folk-festival/

We're waiting for #MontereyJazzFestival, #CaliRoots, or other live music events in #MontereyCounty to make use of bicycle power too!

If you're headed to California Roots Festival / #CaliRoots May 25-28, 2023 in Monterey:

Please bike—or #skate, #skateboard, #scoot, or #walk there—or if you can't use people-powered / #ActiveTransportation to get all the way there, use a "bike-and-ride" option like Monterey-Salinas Transit bus.

Again in 2023, bike/skateboard valet parking will be provided at Gate 8 by faithful valet providers Mike & Natasha Baroni & Friends (aka Nitro Cycle 831).

The valet service was overflowing in 2022, so people who got there early had a spot, while others parked along fence OUTSIDE the valet station. Valet provider Mike Baroni reported today that Cali Roots plans to provide a larger valet station for 2023.
