On October 10, 2004 The Boston Globe reported on "the debut of a program at the Karme Choling Shambhala Buddhist Meditation Center in Barnet [VT] that attempts to bring... together... a weekend of meditation, yoga, and mountain biking. The program devoted mornings to yoga and meditation, and afternoons to guided mountain biking through the Kingdom Trails, a network of scenic backwoods paths through the pristine woods of Vermont's Northeast Kingdom in East Burke." The program's three founders are all practicing Buddhists and avid bicyclists.
