People who bike: Get discounts because you bike in Monterey County – The HER Helmet Thursdays Project

What do art museums, whale watching, the hostel, resort hotels, elegant restaurants, taquerias, java joints, wineries, and spas have in common? They are all building a more bike-friendly county.

They are among hundreds of places in 19 Monterey County cities and unincorporated communities providing 10-50% HER Helmet Thursdays discounts to people who bike, males and females.

For details, click here for the “Quick Links” page.

Listen to a two-minute audio “What’s up with the bike helmet buzz.” Broadcast on KUSP in April 2010, it provides an intro to the project.
