Make a Tax-Deductible Gift to MassBike and Enter to Win a Gekko Folding Bike

 As the year comes to a close, you have a chance to save on taxes and help make cycling better in Massachusetts. Current MassBike members who make a special, tax-deductible gift of $25 or more by December 22nd will be entered in a drawing to win a new Gekko folding bike with custom-fitted carrying case, donated by Robert Fine and Community Bicycle Supply. Not a MassBike member? Join at the $50 level or above by December 22nd (also tax-deductible) and you’ll also be entered to win. (No purchase is necessary to win; please see web link below for details.)

Who Needs the Mall? Shop MassBike for T-Shirts and Bike Maps

Want to knock a few items off the holiday shopping list, give the gift of alternative transportation and support MassBike at the same time? MassBike sells attractive teal t-shirts (S, M, L, XL) for only $15 apiece, with a MassBike logo on front and “One More Bike” on the back. You can order by emailing bikeinfo@massbike.org or calling 617-542-2453. MassBike also has a special deal with community-friendly Rubel Bikemaps, a longtime supporter of cycling advocacy. When you order Rubel Bikemaps products through MassBike, you will not only receive a top-rated map or guidebook, but half the proceeds will go to MassBike’s advocacy efforts. Car-Free in Boston, PocketRides, Bicycling Street Smarts and Rubel Bikemaps are all available. Check out all the Rubel Bikemaps products at www.bikemaps.com, but remember to order from MassBike (just email MassBike or call 617-542-2453) to ensure that your gift dollars enhance your cycling experience throughout the state, all year long.
