Business Highlights: The weekly Erik’s Riders Club rides are a way for the company to help promote safe cycling habits to employees and guests. They also work to help educate the communities through working with the Boy Scouts and Girl Scouts of America, hosting health fairs at local corporations, providing support at local cycling events, and offering commuter tips and resources on our website.
