Greetings!

Bike to Work Week starts today! It's time to get that old rust-bucket bicycle out of the garage, clean it up, get yourself a helmet and hit the road! Besides the positive environmental, health and cost-saving benefits of cycling into work, it's a great stress-buster, time-saver, and best of all, it's fun!
Still not convinced? The Greater Victoria Cycling Coalition has a list of 12 excuses why people don't ride their bikes to work, and 12 answers to those excuses.  Need more information and tips? For our Victoria-based customers (and everyone else!) there's a ton of great information at the Bike to Work Victoria website.
Need more convincing? Drop by The Good Planet Company and talk to Andrea, who'll tell you about her daily bicycle commute from Langford!

There's always something new coming into the store... here are just a few things that popped up this week...

How are you packing your lunch these days?  We already have Victoria's best selection of stainless steel lunch boxes, but several more styles just came in, including the "Eco Lunchbox"

Featured Product
Alpacas
Here's the latest addition to our bedding department...
Crescent Moon Duvet and Pillow Co produces beautiful alpaca duvets, mattress pads and pillows, right here in BC!

Alpaca fiber is hollow, making it one of the warmest natural fibers available. It's naturally light and clean, which prevents dust mites and other allergens.  It's eco friendly - no chemicals, dyes or bleaches are used in processing. Alpaca products are easy to care for - just fluff your duvet or pillow in the morning, and they will maintain their loft and cozy comfort for years! They're also washable.
