Our Corporate package was inspired by customers like Lisa on Bike Friday's listserve, The YAK! From: Lisa Wylie It mentions that some companies are buying bikes for their employees to use to run errands, etc. Maybe Green Gear could target the "corporate fleet" market ... a tikit in every parking garage! The tikit's design makes it easy to use by both sexes, even by females wearing dresses or skirts. And with its "cool factor", I could see people vying to take it for a spin.The owners of the building where I work in Portland did a similar thing a few years ago. They bought a little "smart car" type vehicle that any building tenant could use to run errands, etc - a one-seater called a Sparrow or something. The building management (Russell Development Corp) prides itself on having made "green" improvements and becoming LEED certified. Just this spring they expanded the bike parking available in the garage. Who knows, they may be interested in purchasing a couple of tikits for use by the building tenants ...
