Ikea give Employees bicycles

Reported at Philly.com- Ikea gave 12,400 employees bicycles, as a reward for a good year, and a bicycle because it "supports a healthy lifestyle and everyday sustainable transport," says Ikea Spokeswoman- Mona Liss.

Pretty cool. I like that they were they were smart to not put an ikea decal on it, so it does seem more like a gift than a rolling advertisement.

Cool old shop photo- 1912 Detroit

Detroit, Michigan, circa 1912. "Metzger bicycle shop. Detroit City Gas Co."

Notice, not a single black tire, all the tires are natural rubber.
Nice mixture of single tube pneumatics, Victrolas, and early motorcycles.
