DISMOUNT FOR DISCOUNTS, A POEM

Editors: This story was originally published in Issue 161 of our quarterly Tube Times magazine, one of many perks of membership in the San Francisco Bicycle Coalition.

Did you know, have you heard
from that bike-riding bird
about a great membership perk we provide you?
Well tell you I sure will,
(since the news is quite a thrill,)
you get discounts in the city that you bike through!
Practice yoga, grab a book,
enjoy artisanal cooks;
you’re supporting a local bike-friendly vendor.
Find a sweater or a slice
for a steal-of-a-price
as a thank-you for your support as a member.
So go on, save some cash;
don’t treat money like it’s trash.
We can help get you the most from every penny.
Count each time that you go,
and your savings will grow,
‘cause the variety of shops is a-plenty.
Enjoy ice cream galore,
a hoppy drink to pour.
(Note this last benefit not for kindergartners.)
New bike gear is a treat.
Pedal off on a new seat.
There’s no time to delay — shop with our Discount Partners!

Our Discount Partner program gets you great deals around SF, like $5 off flights at Laughing Monk Brewing, a small batch craft brewery that blends traditions from California and Belgium with local, seasonal ingredients. All of our Discount Partners are bike-friendly businesses who support our work to promote the bicycle for everyday transportation. Show them some love and pay them a visit, and remember to bring your membership card to receive discounts. Want to learn more?
