I have been without motorized transportation for 6 1/2 months now and am saving lots of money (my car was old and needed frequent repair anyhow, granted, but I could swear I spent $100/month on gas, even in my tiny little life). Suddenly it just seems I'm paying off bills and having more discretionary income....Plus the noted advantage of staying in better shape. Your brother came over the other day and brought one of those biker trailers that carry infants and toddlers--you know, the ones with the big wheels that go along behind the bike and can convert to a jogging stroller. He said Well, if it'll hold two toddlers, it ought to hold two laundry baskets. Thus solving one of the more pressing logistical problems of my non-motorized life: getting to and from from the washateria, 5 blocks away, with no car and 3-4 baskets of laundry. Not to mention what would happen when the SNEAUX is on the ground... So tomorrow I take it for a test drive. Onward and upward with green!
