December 4, 2004 – As many of you know, Detour joined forces with the York University Bookstore in mid-2003 to expand our catalogue of sustainable transportation, planning and climate change books, CDs and videos. Since that time, York has been taking care of Detour’s inventory. However, we still have 80 fantastic titles in stock at our old warehouse so we’d like to get them into your hands (or into the hands of that special someone on your holiday gift giving list!) at 25% off the regular price. As well, you will receive:

– Five (5) free issues of TransMission Magazine http://www.detourpublications.com/catalogue/zines.html#tm
– A free copy of Practical Pedalling on all orders over $35.00 CDN (see http://www.detourpublications.com/catalogue/bikes2.html#pp)
– Free shipping to Canadian addresses for orders totaling $75.00 or over (before shipping and tax)
– Free shipping to United States addresses for orders totaling $125.00 CDN or over (before shipping) – free shipping to international addresses for orders totaling $175.00 CDN (before shipping)

Please be advised that we only have one or two copies of most of the 80 titles on sale so don’t delay, order today!
