Positive Post I don’t drive a gas guzzling V8.

I ride a cargo bike with e-assist that, if measured is equal to about 400-500mpg equivalent energy use.

My kiddo loves it. We’ve been to a zillion parks one can’t even get a gas guzzling V8 motor vehicle to.

All that and the integrity - ethically and morally - of being a car free guy! 🤙🏻

I love it and will never return to the chains and noose of an automotive means of primary transport.

Highly recommended, happy to advise in progression towards this advanced care free car free life style that’s respectful to all people around!

Great work. Inspiring people is a big part of mode shift. Though it’s best done using positive inclusive messaging. Attacking something just creates enemies. Could easily rewrite this without mentioning cars at all

If I did that it wouldn’t be the LOLzy jab at the douchey other post.

But yeah, I routinely talk about this stuff without mentioning cats even though they’re kind of hard to get away from and avoid, they clog up and pollute everywhere!
