Life Without Cars

I really love this idea! In college, I loved that for all four years I was walking distance from campus or downtown. For me, it made life less stressful and I found myself really interacting more with people. Meeting people while out, walking to the awesome neighborhood deli, quickly visiting with a friend at their place. Life was good.

Ok it wasn't perfect. I am cleverly forgetting the bad. Like the one time it was pouring rain, and while walking to my evening class I stepped in a huge puddle and had to sit for two hours with wet pants. But I like to stay in my ignorant bliss and would move to Vauban tomorrow if I could!

If your work isn't already participating then you should consider signing up for the SLO Bike Commuter challenge: http://www.triplink.org/chain-reaction/

It looks like my company is participating but not our department. I'll let some people know (we do actually have quite a few riders).

I totally would do this if my commute wasn't 40 miles each way. I'll work on Ben though ;)
