welcome
I have been using alternative transportation for over 15 years. Not so much as a matter of conscience, but of necessity. We have almost always been a one car family.
When I worked for a software company in Seattle, I rode the bus the 25 miles to work. Soon I was hooked. I could sit and relax, listen to music, read, work on my laptop, and leave dealing with traffic to the bus driver.
After we moved to Santa Barbara, I started riding my bike to work and have for nearly ten years. Cycling has become my fitness routine as well. I put more miles on my bike in a year than my car. And I am probably in the best shape of my life.
This web-site was created in the hopes of encouraging and helping others to use a bike as a significant form of transportation.
