One year of carfree living

I sold my car exactly one year ago. As of today, I have been car-free for one year.

During the past year, I've ridden in the dark, and during the day. In gorgeous weather, in the rain, and through the snow.

I've put my bike on the bus. I've cursed the bus on snowy days when I needed it and it simply didn't come.

I've fallen down.

I've puzzled over how best to carry stuff to work, and thrilled over new roads and alternate routes.

I've motivated coworkers to occasionally bike to work.

I've had a lot of fun.

And here starts one more year of one less car.

One less car.

I sold my car.

Holy crap.

One less car. Bring on the winter bike commutes.

The wind was blowing so hard last night. I was doing 12 mph forward and 6 mph sideways all at the same time. Spent most of the time down in the drops just trying to keep a low profile.
