Go Green with a European Market Basket for your Bicycle Turn on your television, pick up a newspaper or a magazine at the newsstand, and you’ll no doubt find an article about the ever rising price of gas, along with how-to tips for conserving it.
One of those tips may be to ride a bicycle around town. If you’re considering this idea, bravo! But many find that the lack of cargo space on a bike really limits their riding.  The answer to this dilemma is a European Market Basket. Not only can you carry your 20 pound pooch in this basket, you can carry his or her dog food home from the store. If you’re worried about Fido eating the food by the time you arrive home, you can purchase both front and rear baskets and keep them separate.
And for those who are green conscious, here is a list of the many benefits from using bicycles and baskets: 1. Cuts down on pollution. The use of a bike instead of a car to do a few errands cuts down on CO2 emissions.  2. Less impact on the environment. The European Market Basket has a handle that lifts off the bike so that it can be taken into the store and the purchases can be placed into it, which eliminates the use of either paper or plastic bags. The range of sizes that are available accommodate even larger purchases.
3. Savings. The use of less gas results in more money in our pockets. 4. Helps the earth. Since six plus bikes can fit in the space of one parking spot for a car, the result of more bicycle use could be less pavement, which would equal more trees, which equals less run off into the ground. 5. Sets a good example. Old and young are more likely to ride bicycles when they notice others riding.  6. Nicer neighborhoods. Less car traffic results in quieter, healthier, friendlier neighborhoods.
7. Better health. Riding a bicycle regularly for local errands means we can eliminate exercise from our ‘To Do List’ because we have incorporated it into our life, with positive effects on our health and wellness. 8. Retirement benefits. We will be healthier, resulting in savings of both time and money for healthcare. 9. Eco friendly. European Market baskets are made of heavy grade willow which will naturally deteriorate after many years of use. Metal baskets get rusty with age and end up in landfills. 888-404-1444 or http://www.cynthiastwigs.com. Edited by Ellen Schofield |
