Bicycle Benefits is a nationwide progressive bicycling program designed to reward individuals and businesses for their commitment to cleaner air, personal health, and the use of pedaling energy in order to create a more sustainable community. The program’s continual growth decreases parking demand, increases helmet use, and improves cyclists’ safety and health by putting more people on bikes.
How does it work? Cyclists purchase a reflective helmet sticker for $5 from a participating business. When they visit a participating business by bicycle and show their sticker at the register, they receive a discount on their purchase! Discounts are decided by the business, and vary from place to place.

The Rogue Creamery Cheese Shop in Central Point (10% off)
The Northwest Outdoor Store in Medford
Medford Cycle Sport in Medford (10% off parts and accessories)
