Check out this page (http://www.macys.com/campaign/earthday/index.jsp?LinkType=Homepage&cm_re=44.1.12%20Build%205-_-HOMEPAGE_INCLUDE_1-_-CATEGORY%20--%205125%20--%20:learn%20more). Follow the "Eco Tips" link. Tip #3 of 9 is "bike", specifically, bike to work. I was tipped off to this from seeing a print version of this bike tip in my morning newspaper! Yay, Macy's! :)

Update: Here (http://www.nationaljewelernetwork.com/njn/content_display/high_volume/e3ia7525c7eaec6f171ab2ce674f38c0b3e)'s an article telling more about their campaign.

Awesome. See, it is possible for a major corporate entity to promote biking in a fairly decent way. Too bad more won't at least try.

I posted this thread in the Commuter Forum (http://www.bikeforums.net/showthread.php?t=409831). With a scan of the ad in our local paper.
