Motivating and acknowledging employees can take many forms, typically encompassing food, time off, casual dress or some such thing. Clif Bar recently did something substantially different: In honor of its 20th anniversary, it had Public Bikes make custom bikes for all of their employees. Each was given a Public V3 with a custom Clif Bar head badge, Clif Bar red frame and rims, and an inscription with their name and start date.

This is a totally fitting acknowledgement of this momentous anniversary, as the idea for Clif Bar came about when founder Gary Erickson, a long distance biker, was dissatisfied with the energy bar options available to him, and set about creating one himself. Each bike bears the words “Born on a Bike – Kitchen Crafted – Family & Employee Owned” In typical Clif Bar fashion, they enlisted a secret warehouse near their office, to surprise reveal the bikes. The reaction is priceless.
