New Bicycle Friendly Destination Additions

Some fun announcements in the Bicycle Friendly Destination department!

*Crane Coffee (all locations now!):  10% off if you ride your bicycle there and show them your helmet.

*Jake's in Benson:  $1.00 off any drink Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesdays evenings from 5-7p.m.

*Aroma's at 11th and Jones:  has been a BFD for a while now, but just recently started offering a 10% discount when you ride there!

*The Greater Omaha Chamber 13th and Harney: outdoor seating in the back courtyard with tables and chairs, a big screen t.v. that will broadcast the CWS games, and a bunch of bike parking that is surrounded by security cameras!

Thanks to all who are supporters of cycling in Omaha!!

This is great to see businesses recognize the need for alternate forms of transportation, with discounts no less. I hope the establishments will have a sign posted for those who may not know that they qualify for a discount. Or better yet if the staff and these places notice a bike helmet or cleats that they would automatically apply the discount to said customer. I would like to see a challenge put out to other companies in regards to this type of offer. As a side note it would be nice if these places as well as many others would have staple racks installed to encourage people to ride instead of drive.
