Wheeled Migration is for the thrill of our changing times.
We produce cycling events to interpret social and ecological change.
It is our mission to support and celebrate healthy social alternatives by bicycle.
We are currently in the process of developing a dream.
Please check back as this site will soon change.
Thank you for visiting.
The evening migration to Durham was a terrific rally through orchards, oaks, and a brisk and clear sky.
In total, a group of 15 made our way seven miles South to participate in the discussion over future water management.
Several CUSC students rallied, Franny and Max from Chico's 1525 GRUB community were there, Ma Muse was there, Synthesis columnist Julia Murphy rolled, Jinger Ninjas tour manger Sammy Z was there, along with 3/8ths of the WM team to bring up the tail with hot drinks, sweet breads, fruits, extra tubes, and safety supplies.
The evening ripened into heated discussions between WM riders and with members of both the Glenn County Irrigation District and the Butte Environmental Council.
Dissatisfaction with how GCID representatives responded to questions has led BEC director, Barbara Vlamis to form a community group to focus response on the issue of conjunctive water management. Wheeled Migration will provide details to these meetings as they come available.
The Chico ER gave a nod to the meeting, and we expect the CNR and Julia Murphy to address the issue again soon.
As an event, the evenings ride proved very inspiring. It contained every element of what I expect to find on a Wheeled Migration tour. An eclectic group of thinkers, doers, artists, and music makers, all mingling and laughing, sharing opinions and experience, and rousing some social awareness with a relaxing bike ride - awesome!
Our thanks to everyone moved to respond and organize around this very important issue for the North State.
See you on a bike.
