Bike Benefits for Businesses

Did you know that bikes are good for business? According to Forbes Magazine, cyclists spend 40% more than motorists do at local shops. So why not be good to cyclists? When bikers are riding around town it’s nice for them to know there’s a place where they can park safely, use a restroom, and refill their water bottle.
