Add Roadside Service Support for Cyclists Nationwide

The Issue

Whether it is for sport, fun or transportation, more and more people are utilizing bikes. Many of us experience the joy of knowing when our vehicles are disabled, AAA is just a phone away!  They are there to fix your flat tires, battery replacement and other roadside services. But if you're using a bike as transportation, who is your phone call away?

Successfully, AAA has implemented cyclist roadside services in Seattle, Colorado, New Jersey and a few other limited states.  This service is relieving the anxiety of who to call when your bike has been disabled and offers the comfort of knowing that someone will always be available to assist. Wouldn't this be a great service for all clubs to offer to their members nationwide?

Not only is this helpful to us as cyclists, but this movement is great for the economy because it creates jobs within the community!  Please join me in signing this petition to have roadside service for all AAA members that are cyclists.  

Please familiarize yourself with these articles and other locations who are receiving this added benefit to their normal AAA memberships:
