National Bike Week runs from 14 -22 June 2014. It is an opportunity to extol the great virtues of cycling and encourage people to make cycling a part of their everyday lives. The social, health, financial and environmental benefits of cycling are right there waiting for you. So take advantage of the infectious enthusiasm out there and get on your bike!
And at iMember - we remind you of the further benefits of cycling apart form the ones listed above. Being a member of one of your local or national cycling associations brings with it loads of extra member benefits all of which we will remind you about. Simply register which organisations (cycling-related and otherwise) you belong to with iMember (for free) at www.iMember.co.uk and we will remind you of ALL the extra membership benefits you are entitled to. You will be amazed at the sheer number of discounts / benefits / rewards that you can get through your membership organisations that you are currently missing out on!
Furthermore, download the free mobile app to your phone and whenever you are within a certain radius (specified by you) of one of your benefits, you will get an automatic reminder from us.
So make the most of National Bike Week and make the most of your membership benefits too!
If you are fortunate enough never to have needed roadside assistance or breakdown recovery, you may feel that the annual membership fee (from as little as £37.99 with the RAC) is money you could well do without spending. BUT, like any insurance you have, it's only when you need to make a claim that you feel the great wave of relief that you are covered and help is on the way.
But if you're wise and use your membership to it's fullest extent then even if you don't need the recovery or road side assistance you still have a host of membership benefits you CAN use. By registering your membership of your chosen breakdown recovery group with iMember on www.iMember.co.uk you will be reminded of the pile of extra membership benefits they have negotiated for you. Big discounts on days out at Thorpe Park, Chessington, Legoland or Alton Towers; discounts on airport parking; reduced priced MOTs; discounts with Virgin Wines - the list goes on and on!
iMember is completely free to use. Once you have registered - you will be asked to list all your membership organisations (not only breakdown recovery, but gym memberships, newspaper subscriptions, university alumni...you will be amazed at the number of organisations you belong to!) and you will then be shown all the benefits due to you. If you download the free mobile app - you will receive text alerts whenever you are within a specified radius of one of your member benefits.
So, when you are debating whether or not to renew your breakdown recovery, perhaps think of it as a necessary luxury. Then register with iMember on www.iMember.co.uk and we'll make sure you remember to use all the additional benefits that membership brings.
