Bikers Are Awesome

The writer from My Roman Apartment recently shared this link to some awesome infographics about how biking is going to save the world.

If you love an infographic, check it out – you will be surprised. I certainly was!

I am inspired to become more involved with my local bike advisory council, which is working to improve our town’s  Bike Friendliness rating (from bronze to silver). And I need to spend some time this winter with my project bike. I want to put some miles on it this spring!

Ultimately, my goal is to be car free. I will get there, but it’s definitely going to take some major adjustments in my lifestyle. But I can see the results of changes I have already implemented (ie commuting via bus to work) are moving me towards achieving my goal.

Any one else striving to be car free or car lite? Share with me what changes you’ve made to achieve that goal. :)

  1. We are at least down to one car & love it! It just takes a bit more planning. We are fortunate to be able to carpool to work, basically bc there is no parking at my work. We are also cell phone free (since July) and it really hasn’t been too bad. It teaches us to be patient & realize we may be late to get one another, etc & that is ok!

    • I think it would be a lot harder to go without a cell phone than to go without a car. Good for you guys! People survived for millenia without all this crap. You’re going to be awesome parents!
