The 2013 CommuteByBike.com Holiday Gift Guide!

Its that time of year again.   That time of year for wallowing in the gift giving ambiguities of consumerism, generosity and self-interest.   We are here to help you through this mess with some clear and concise holiday gift related strategies.

 

#1: Consumerism: Attack this problem head on by tying consumerism to products that help people lead better lives.   Sturdy and rugged bike commuting products might just fit the bill.
#2: Generosity: Be generous to those who deserve it most.   We think the bike commuter in your life deserves some generosity just because they are always in such a good mood after a good bike commute.
#3: Self Interest: Suggest to your family and friends through social media that a bike commuting related gift would be something that would brighten up your holidays.
