New in 2009 Tax Free Benefits added for Bike Commuters in 2009 The Emergency Economic Stabilization Act of 2008 : H.R. 1424:  (bailout) bill signed into law by President Bush on October 3, 2008 includes expanding qualified transportation fringe benefits (Section 132(f) ) to allow up to $20.00 per month for bicycle commuters.  Bicycle benefits will take effect in January of 2009.     This benefit means that employers may provide employees with up to $20 in tax-free bicycle benefits per month up to $240 per calendar year for reasonable expenses incurred by the employee during the calendar year for the purchase of a bicycle and bicycle improvements, repair, and storage if the bicycle is regularly used by the employee to travel between the employee's residence and place of employment.  FRINGE BENEFIT FOR BICYCLE COMMUTERS.
