There was a time that it was only kids on the block who rode around on their bicycles…Now,however, everyone is out there on a beautiful weekend and  thanks to Lance Armstrong cycling has become a very popular sport.

Have you noticed how many folks have dusted off their bicycles after the long winter and are out there peddling around town.  With the price of gasoline many are hopping on their bikes to get to work each morning and families are choosing “road trips” on their bicycles  rather than in their cars.   It seems like cycling has never been more popular whether it is mountain biking or just a ride to the post office…riding a bike is fashionable once again…

We love promotional products that people will actually use and bike themed ideas are perfect for spring and summer giveaways and promotions…tradeshow giveaways, company outings, community outreach, charity rides…are all great opportunities to get your logo out there in a way that will attract attention and on a product that people will be happy to receive and use!

Tire gauges, odometers, safety lights, reflectors, flags, seat covers, bike plates, repair kits, water bottles, bottle holders, tire pumps, spoke reflectors.bike baskets–all sporting your logo are just a few of the products available that will get the wheels in motion to a great promotional season.

These are some ideas to get you peddling in the right direction…Be sure to visit our website and Buzz Us for more ideas including a great selection of custom bike bottles and water bottles.

It will be a very long time before the “numbers” tell the story-the extraordinary loss of infrastructure, homes, buildings and frighteningly loss of life is still unknown. For now we have the images that tell the world the story of people.

We are all left feeling overwhelmingly helpless …What can we do to help?  Yet act we must, in any small way we can, if only to remind us that we are all connected, we are all residents of this planet.

Beginning April 1, through July 31, Hanover Sport and School Spirit Store will donate a portion of the proceeds from all custom items that are specifically ordered to be used as  fundraisers to aid Japanese earthquake and tsunami relief  to organizations working to bring much needed aid to the area.*    We encourage you to  join us in doing whatever we  can during this difficult time.  We feel this tragedy is an opportunity to teach kids the lessons of helping others and we have many custom product ideas to be used for fundraisers.  Please contact us and we will be happy to help your school or group plan your fundraiser to aid Japan.

Please Visit Network for Good for donation options including Doctors without Borders and Global Giving which has set up a Text Donation line-text JAPAN to 50555 to give $10
