Since I published my travel tips e-book a couple of weeks ago, I've been hearing from people
asking about the companies/products that I recommend in my book.
Three of these companies, so far, are on board to offer discounts on
their products to anyone who purchases my book:
1. SteriPen, the company
that manufactures a small device that you can carry in your pocket
and that will sterilize contaminated water in seconds. They are
offering $5 off on any product they sell.
2. Clothing Arts, the company that
manufactures Pick-Pocket Proof Pants -- yes, they are so pick-pocket
proof that you would have to be unconscious for anyone to get into
your pockets -- is offering a substantial 20% discount that's good
until fall 2013. I've blogged about these pants in an earlier post.
For each of these discounts, simply email me (see the contact information in my blog) and I'll provide you with the discount codes.
Below is the latest company
to provide an offer to those who buy my book. And this is a company
that is near and dear to my heart. I've been a member of this
organization for ages and have taken many of their bicycle tours
where I've pedaled along one of the most beautiful roads in the
country, the Beartooth Highway, and also went ferry hopping in
Washington State's San Juan Islands. I've cycled over soaring
mountain passes in Colorado and Montana as well as along historic
paths in New Mexico passing old pueblo dwellings.
Anyone who buys my travel
tips e-book will:
Adventure
Cycling Association is North America’s largest nonprofit
membership bicycling organization. Their mission is to inspire
and empower people to travel by bicycle. They publish the
award-winning Adventure
Cyclist
magazine known for its insightful stories,inspiring photography,
bicycle-travel news, gear reviews, technical advice columns, touring
bike road tests, and more.
This
is a company without pretension, a company that has long advocated
for safe bicycle routes around the country, and a company that was
the first first in 1976 to organize the coast-to-coast bicycle route
in the U.S.
Their guided
bicycle tours span the gamut, from cushy inn-to-inn tours where
you'll enjoy low-key cycling in, for example, Puget Sound in
Washington, passing tranquil coves and harbors, to family tours in Idaho where you and your kids can stop in historic towns,
take a refreshing dip in a swimming hole, and do some bird watching, to much
more rigorous self-contained tours that course thousands of miles
over hill and dale, such as their Sierra Cascades tour. On these latter tours, you'll carry
everything, including clothing, food and other gear, on your bike,
camp overnight and wake up to towering redwoods and course through
majestic parks, such as Yosemite and Lassen, with its smoldering
volcanic activity. You'll become
comfortable with the day-to-day routine, and realize that good camaraderie, warm food, a
roof over your head, and a day of scenic vistas is all you need to be
happy
Aside
from their tours and the magazine, Adventure Cycling also offers the
Cyclists' Yellow Pages, a comprehensive resource allowing you to
search for bicycle shops, bike tour operators, bicycle events and
much more in North America and around the world.
