Apparently the Federal Bailout Bill has some nice little tidbits attached, such as employers being able to claim a $20/month/biker tax relief, passed down to the biking employee via fringe benefits.

It goes without saying but I will say it anyway: using cycling for transportation can save you money regardless, even if you already use an thrifty means, like the subway or bus system.
Now all we need are more bike parking spots, tire pumping stations, and severe prosecution for people who park or open their car doors into bike traffic lanes.
