It'll take a lot more than 20 dollars a month to convince people to change. Those of us who are already commuting by bike aren't doing it because of a desire to save $20, and those who are going to be motivated by money will need a lot more to get them to switch.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36250316.post-10991156886697710452009-01-15T17:36:00.000-08:002009-01-15T17:36:00.000-08:00my workplace has a rideshare program where you acc...my workplace has a rideshare program where you accumulate points to redeem for extra cash or tickets and things. ie: 2 person carpool is 10 points a day, while bus,train,biking, and walking are 20 points a dayjojohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00288106580510301785noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36250316.post-7718842592530070082009-01-14T08:43:00.000-08:002009-01-14T08:43:00.000-08:00My boss basically said, "I don't want to have to t...My boss basically said, "I don't want to have to think about it...figure it out and it's yours. <BR/><BR/>So unless he's annoyed by having to put 10 extra bucks on all my paychecks, I may be good!Tony Bullardhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14281340864822961747noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36250316.post-60060253901604461872009-01-13T20:12:00.000-08:002009-01-13T20:12:00.000-08:00The bikebux website is a clever idea!

My employer already offers $25 a month for parking and transit. This "parking" benefit applies to the $25 I pay per month for use of the Chicago Cycling Center (secure parking, shower, lockers). A lot of people assume that the parking benefit applies only to cars, but all I had to do was ask.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
