Happy New Year, cyclists!
The fantastic nation-wide program Bicycle Benefits is now here in Rochester.
Kick off 2012 by getting your $5 membership helmet sticker at participating locations, and then ride your bike to other participating businesses to receive your discount on products and services.
The first local business to join was Park Ave. Bikes (thank you, Andy!); other recent businesses joining include Java’s, Callan-Harris Physical Therapy, and the Owl House.
You can read more about the program at http://www.bicyclebenefits.org. Click on “New York” on the left side of the home page, and then on “Rochester,” and you will find new businesses added as they join. You can also see the location of each business as well as the details about the discounts offered.
If you know of any businesses that would like to join, please contact us at the RCA, or the business can contact Bicycle Benefits directly. It is virtually a cost-free program for businesses, and is one that encourages cleaner air, personal health, and the use of pedaling energy in order to create a more sustainable community.
Please join us to help make Bicycle Benefits a success in the Flower City. And let’s put more people on bikes and continue to bring active transportation to Rochester!
