FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE:

SAN DIEGO, CA (BRAIN)- Trailhead Cycle & Ski in Buena Vista, Colorado, won the single-store award when Bicycle Retailer and Industry News (BRAIN) recently handed out its BRAINy awards with a first-ever emphasis on companies making a concerted effort to go green. BRAIN announced the awards Jan. 19 at the Bicycle Leadership Conference in San Diego.

“We want to encourage companies to consider taking small steps toward lessening their environmental footprint,” said Megan Tompkins, the magazine’s editor.

Green award winners were selected based on an online survey conducted by an independent research group. Companies were selected for participating in a range of environmentally friendly initiatives such as employees using alternative means of transportation to get to work, offsetting carbon emissions, implementing green shipping practices, recycling, HAZMAT compliance, and using recycled paper.

Winners in the manufacturers category for large, mid-size and small companies were Specialized, Thule and Pedro’s USA, respectively. REI won for large retailer; Mt. Airy Bicycles/College Park Bicycles in Maryland was the winner in the multiple-store category.

The staff of Trailhead Cycle & Ski is honored to be included with such companies, and invites everyone to visit to see the award, and learn how easy it is to be environmentally responsible.
