Now through December 8, 2016 get 15% off all orders at my store with coupon code: Holiday2016

My on-line store, Salty Pedaler, has quite a few new products. Available for purchase are bicycle related designs applied to tee-shirts and mugs. I come up with designs I like and  also offer them to others.

Recently a friend of mine told me he liked one of my designs and decided he’d like to buy a tee shirt with the design on it. I was excited to know what design he liked so much. Turns out he liked the Salty Pedaler logo design the most. I told him it wasn’t offered on any of my products. He was insistent it was the logo he wanted on a tee shirt. I ended up ordering a sample order with two tee shirts and a mug. One for him and one for me in a different color, just to see how it came out. It ended up looking great on a tee shirt and the mug. It looked so good I put it on the Salty Pedaler website. In the past few weeks it’s been one of my better sellers. They are offered in men’s tees and unisex tees.

Some of you may already know I have an e-commerce website. It’s called Salty Pedaler. I’ve had an idea to design my own bicycle themed tee shirts for more than a decade. Only in the last year has it become a reality. I design for myself and then put them out in the world in hopes others might enjoy them as well. You’ll see me wearing tee shirts with my own designs most days. I’ve never been a person that follows the crowd. So wearing my own unique tee shirts that I designed feels good to me. I’ve been seen wearing designs that aren’t even offered on the website. Some I just like to keep for myself I guess.

Today I’m announcing a new design I’ve put up on Salty Pedaler. I call it my “Ride Steel” design. All my bikes are made of steel. I feel steel bikes give you the best bang for your buck of any frame material. It rides comfortably, is reliable, and relatively inexpensive. This design celebrates my fondness for bikes made from steel.

I have two designs. One is more of a traditional diamond frame. The second is more of a mixte/step-through frame. I offer the designs on the above mugs in 11 oz or 15 oz sizes. And on tee shirts. Visit Salty Pedaler to see the selection of colors.

My wife Susan has been wearing the one on the bottom left all summer. It’s printed on an Aqua colored 100% cotton tee. It’s one of her favorite tee shirts to wear these days. That’s pretty cool.

The Salty Pedaler website also has a blog. I posted an entry there about this new design as well.

Currently you can get 10% off any order using the code: INSTAGRAM through 10-31-16.

Salty Pedaler Grand Opening Special

To celebrate the Grand Opening of Salty Pedaler I’m offering a special. Get 10% off your first order through the Memorial Day Holiday, Monday, May 30, 2016. Use coupon code GRANDOPENING when you check out to get the special.

I’ve had a plan to open a bicycle related store for more than ten years. The term “bicycle related store” has included everything from a brick and mortar retail store to this lower start-up cost e-commerce site called Salty Pedaler. I have a blog on that site. I plan to update it about once a week. The first blog post, titled “Bicycles are Freedom” is up now. It will be less personal then this blog. It will cover more bicycle lifestyle or store related topics. But they will be written by me for now.

I am starting out offering bicycle themed t-shirts and coffee mugs. More products will be added over time. The design ideas are mine. Here’s the first design I came up with:
