Earth Day:!@%$#! Cars, Ride Your Bike

The business and work culture of Bike Shop Hub in all it's glory.

When we have new products, sales, weird marketing ideas, commentary on the cycling industry, or embarrasing photos of of the staff, this is where you'll find it.

And since we are located in Arizona, we'll talk about the cycling scene in the state.

Join the conversation.

Send In Your Cycling Photos

We get to see and touch and test all sorts of great cycling gear here at our world headquarters. But we actually get to meet very few of our customers in person.

We just know you are out there taking pictures of your amazing cycling adventures. We want to see them! The best ones will be shared on the relevant section of this blog: Bike Cargo Trailers, Bike Touring, Bike Technology and Family Cycling.

Earth Day:!@%$#! Cars, Ride Your Bike

Written on April 9, 2008 by Josh Lipton in Shop Life

Ride Your Bike Badge Earth Day is around the corner and, the way we see it, the only thing better than having an excuse to ride our bikes is having an excuse to get lots of people to ride their bikes.

You might have guessed that we have a passion for bicycles here at the Bike Trailer Blog. A big part of that comes from our desire to minimize our individual impact on the environment. Join with us this Earth Day in promoting bicycling as a solution for earth friendly transportation.

We are asking everyone we know to make a pledge to ditch the car and opt for greener transportation (bike, bike, bike, or walk, take public transportation or come up with some other mode for teleporting your bad self that doesn’t burn up compressed dinosaur juice). Leave a comment and let us know that you will be joining us.
