AAA Offers Service for Cyclists

Perusing the web I found an interesting article on how AAA is now going to offer roadside assistance for cyclists in parts of Idaho and in Oregon.

AAA has issued a news release stating it will include bicycle service " . . . as part of its regular roadside membership benefits package for AAA Plus, Plus RV and Premier members. Effective immediately, there is no additional charge for roadside service which applies to all bicycles and tandems, including rental bicycles and bicycle trailers." And the service will offer transportation to a safe point within a 25 mile radius.

This seems it might just be a worthwhile option for commuters or those touring by bicycle.

We may have to invest in this prior to our participation in the Seattle to Portland Bike Classic (STP). ;)


What do you think? Would this make you want to get AAA, just to ensure you have assistance on the road, no matter what?
