FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE: MAY 14, 2012
Free Bike Cleveland Membership from Century Cycles for Bike To Work Week on
May 14-18
ROCKY RIVER, Ohio – Bike buyers will roll away with more than just a new ride at Century Cycles this week. They will also receive a free membership in Bike Cleveland, the area’s new bicycle advocacy organization.
Century Cycles bicycle store is offering to pay the individual membership dues in Bike Cleveland (a $35 value) for anyone who buys a bicycle of $500 or more from its stores in Rocky River, Medina and Peninsula during Bike to Work Week from May 14-18, 2012.
“We want to make it easy for our customers to support bicycling in Northeast Ohio and have as many bicycling opportunities as possible,” said Scott Cowan, owner of Century Cycles. “When someone is a member of a local bicycle advocacy organization like Bike Cleveland, they are helping the area become a more bicycle-friendly and bicycle-oriented place to live.”
Bike Cleveland membership forms will be offered to buyers of bikes $500 or more at all three Century Cycles stores. Once completed, the forms and dues payment will be submitted by Century Cycles. If someone prefers a family membership at $60, they simply pay the $25 difference and that membership level will be processed for them.
Bike Cleveland membership is in addition to the several perks that new bike buyers already receive at Century Cycles, including a free t-shirt, free new bike tune-up, half-priced installation of accessories at time of purchase and 10% off all bicycle accessories for three months.
