Hey all, I didn't see anything out there on it so I thought I would throw in a thread about an organization called Bicycle Benefits (I'm not affiliated so this isn't an ad). You just put a $5 sticker (available at any participating store) on your helmet and show it to get discounts. Alot of towns already have it set up, and more could use it. You can find them at Bicycle Benefits ®.

Dang, nothing in my area. But a cool concept. Thanks for the info!

Nothing in most areas. That's cool though.

If you guys are interested in getting one going in your community they offer a formatted letter (under Individuals - How to get a business to join) to send out to store owners. Just get a couple friends together and start sending out letters to your favorite local businesses and get it going. I would love to see this go up in as many places as possible.

Thanks, rustang! I'm gonna do that.

Well, 68 for SLC, that's pretty respectable.

Very cool idea. I'm surprised Austin isn't there being so bike friendly.

I’m going to give this very old thread a bump. I’ve noticed more participating businesses even in some smaller cities.
$2 off a wood fired oven pizza at the local pizza/microbrew place. And a free bottle of water at all branches of one of the credit unions.
