We are thrilled to announce that one of our wonderful US customers, John, is Treadley’s first official cycling Ambassador at RAGBRAI!  John recently bought a Treadley Helmet Hat and was so impressed that he offered to being a riding Treadley billboard!  Treadley would love to have an excuse to pop over the the US and seat ourselves in the saddle but someone needs to man the fort back home.

More news on John’s antics closer to the event.  If you are participating in a touring event or cycling tour this summer, we recommend the Treadley Tourer to keep you sun protected.

Remember to wear sun screen and hat when out and about.  If bike riding, scootering or cruising in a bike seat make sure all helmets are covered with a Treadley Helmet Hat!

Friday 23 March, 2012 is National Ride2School Day!

In the 1970’s, 80% of school children were active on the way to school. Today, only 20% experience the joy of getting fresh air on the school journey. National Ride2School Day provides an opportunity for Australian students, parents and teachers to give riding, walking, skating or scooting to school a go, while celebrating the regular walkers and wheelers.

On this day, an active journey to school is normal and the entire school community gets behind it. It is a chance to celebrate on a large scale and to prove it can be done. After showing it’s achievable on this day school communities are encouraged to keep the momentum going throughout the entire year.

All schools that sign-up will receive posters and stickers, in addition to other resources to help them join in the celebration and run their own event.

Sign Up via this link.

This is a huge honour for Lisa and the Treadley Team; and we are proud to be able to help promote safe cycling for all ages.
