Midtown Alliance's Commuter Rewards

Usually good news travels slower than bad news, but this kind of good news might move along nicely.

You can win cash and prizes for an alternative commute.

If you don't believe me, I'm posting the text of a recent reward I received for riding my bike to work and logging my commutes.

I had mentioned in an earlier post that people do what is easiest. The Midtown Alliance and the Clean Air Campaign are making it easier to clean up our commutes. By working with local businesses, the Midtown Alliance is making a positive impact on alternative transportation. And that makes Midtown a healthier place for everyone.

Even if you are unable to take advantage of Commuter Rewards, perhaps you know someone who can. Pass along the good word.

Stunning panoramic photos, as always. Adding incentives for alternative commute methods is pretty cool, although for me and I'm sure many other cyclists, the ride is its own reward.

I miss Atlanta sometimes (but not the traffic!). I am going to spend the summer biking to work, I need to seek out something like that around here. Great shots of the skyline btw and thanks for stopping by my blog.

When were you in Atlanta? The traffic is a big reason I'm on a bike as much as possible, so I guess there is a silver lining. I think the traffic is also a reason we have the Commuter Rewards.
