Research shows that cycling saves the Australian economy $221,000,000 per year in reduced healthcare and congestion costs.

This money should be returned to cyclists through a tax rebate every year.

Every Australian who nominates themselves as a cyclist on their tax return should share in the savings they have helped accrue to the community through their positive lifestyle choice.
