I have been living pretty much car free for the last three years or so. What started out as a personal challenge has turned into a new way of thinking about transportation. I’d like to outline a few of the pros & cons I’ve picked up through my car free journey.

History has a way of repeating itself, or in my case revealing hidden passions and for me that passion was cycling. I would say for the most part, I had a pretty normal childhood filled with many little boy activities including playing in the mud, running everywhere and riding bikes. I don’t remember to much of learning to ride but I sure do remember my first real bike.
