    Boss Pays Me to Ride to Work

    By Escape  |  Posted May 30, 2008  |  Las vegas, Nevada
     
    RideBikesSaveEarth Chris Freese battles some serious road rage through the dangerous streets of Las Vegas on his 28 mile round trip to work each day. He says he is ready to buy a helmut cam to document some of the crazy thing that happen to him. Las Vegas has a ton of construction at all times, and people have yelled at him for riding on the streets. He has even had a couple kids try and take a swing at him! Chris says his battle each day is "all in the name of being GREEN and helping the earth", ...and the fact that his boss Jared Fisher of Escape Adventures , actually PAYS him $5/day to ride to work. Chris figures this is saving him : $8/day + $5 = 13...thats an extra $65 a week! And about 1 TON less carbon each year. www.escapeadventures.com alicia@escapeadventures.com
