The fabulous online ladies bike mag Cycle & Style just published a write-up of the Tour. This website is a great resource for women looking for some cycling (and style…) inspiration!

Cycling Caps, Pledges & Partnerships
There were a few exciting packages waiting for me upon my return home from Montana this week…
#1:
A box from People For Bikes containing pledge sheets, stickers, buttons and a sweet jersey. Along the Tour route I will be assisting this awesome organization in collecting 1 million signatures of “people for bikes”. This initiative of Bikes Belong is focused on “getting us closer to a bike friendly tomorrow”. I’m happy to be able to contribute to this great program. And I am pleased to report that I’ve already collected 6 signatures! Add your name to the movement here.
#2:
A second, equally encouraging package was from Octopus Caps – a small Midwest company that sews super stylish custom cycling caps. What does this mean? Coming soon: School Food Tour HATS!!
They sent me a size run in a variety of sample colors. I will be placing a small order with them soon and I can already tell that it’s going to be difficult to choose my favorite style. Get in touch if you’re interested in one of these limited edition Tour caps!
People for Bikes – Tour Article
First of all, sign the pledge if you are for bikes! Secondly, this awesome organization just posted a fun article about the Tour: “Better food + bicycling = the recipe for reducing childhood obesity”
People for Bikes aims to “unite one million voices to improve the future of biking” and I am excited to partner with them as we work towards developing a healthier, more cycling-centric society. I will be collecting signatures for their bike pledge along the School Food Tour route so if you see me roll by, be sure to flag me down and pen your name! There will be be sweet buttons & stickers to be had, but even more importantly, you will be joining the force of people who are for bikes!
