GRAND RAPIDS, Mich. (BRAIN) — TerraTrike, a U.S. manufacturer of three-wheeled recumbents, is working with Adventure Cycling to offer a free year's membership to the organization with the purchase of some models. The company also is offering a $200 discount on TerraTrike accessories with a new trike purchase.
The company said the Adventure Cyclist promotion is part of an effort to promote its three-wheeled machines to current bike tourists.
"Adventure Cycling has done for bicycle travel what Einstein did for physics — it has broadened riders' minds and made them realize so much more is possible," said Jeff Yonker, marketing director at TerraTrike. "TerraTrike is proud to join that rallying cry for more human powered transport."
For the month of December, TerraTrike is offering a $200 voucher toward its line of branded accessories — cargo bags, panniers, lights, flags — and a free year membership to Adventure Cycling for anyone who buys a Rambler, Traveler, Gran Tourismo, Sportster or Tandem Pro. Buyers of all Rover models, including the Rover Tandem, are eligible for a $100 voucher on the same accessories.
The membership includes nine issues of Adventure Cyclist Magazine, discounts on cycling maps, access to trip planning resources and other benefits. Every year, one issue of Adventure Cyclist is dedicated to recumbent bikes and trikes.
"There's always been a passionate recumbent community in the world of bicycle travel," said Alex Strickland, the editor-in-chief of Adventure Cyclist, "and as more people discover recumbents we look forward to bringing them into the fold."
