FREQUENT RIDER MILES

Hey, it worked for the airlines, why not for motorcycle tourers? Edelweiss Bike Travel has instituted its WorldTourer program, in which participants are credited with miles for each tour taken. Rack up enough miles, and you can trade ’em in for bike upgrades, extra nights in hotels or, if you’re a serious repeat customer, half-off selected tour packages. If you’ll allow us some shameless self-promotion, may we suggest starting your mileage tally on the Cycle World GP Euro-Tour, which takes place August 8-18, and features some of the Alps’ best roads on the way to the Czech Grand Prix in Brno. This marks the 11th year Edelweiss and CW have teamed up for the tour. Space is limited, so log on to www.edelweissbike.com for more info, or sign up by phoning 800/582-2263.
