Forget Joe the Plumber. As we mentioned before, Congress has approved providing a tax credit to companies for each employee who rides a bicycle to work. We recently spoke to the sponsor of the bill, Oregon Congressman Earl Blumenauer.What we are finding is that bicycle usageis going up, Blumenauer told Outsides Matthew Fishbane. I mentioned Replica Cartier w6700155 Tank Solo Watch these challenges of global warming, risingenergy prices, and obesity, that neatly point to increased cycling as asolution.The credit is $20 per month, per employee, and apparently goes to the commuters employer, to help offset the purchase of a bicycle and bicycle improvements, repair, andstorage, if such bicycle is regularly used for travel between theemployee’s residence and place of employment.” The credit was approved along with a bunch of pork that was bundled into the $700 billion bailout plan to grease its passage through by Congress. --JUSTIN NYBERG
Ok, Ive got a confession to make. You know Buff Headwear, those funny and brightly-colored headbands that contestants on Survivor wore? I’m actually a big fan. (Note: So is my former colleague Megan Michelson, who wrote about them last Replica Cartier we10456h Tank Francaise Watch year in a gear spotlight.) I know what you’re thinking….and I agree. Yes, they’re often worn by exceptionally dorky people (like Keystone ski instructors and people who still rock the unironic fanny pack). And, yes, some of the patterns make Zubaz pants look tame.But you know what? They’re also extremely handy and packable—and available in dozens of subdued (and solid) colors.
