I am contemplating not riding in a car during the month of May. I don’t think this would be a major change for my life, but the extreme extent would put me outside of my comfort zone. I like the timeframe of one month, as for me it is long enough to be a challege but short enough to constantly see the light at the end of tunnel.
I think not using a car would hamper my trail running habit and impose some tougher travel plans as I plan to visit Chicago, Oregon, and San Francisco that month.
I developed this idea from the Bike to Work Month that came from the Bike to Work Week that came from the Bike to Work Day, all of which I learned mainly from Wikipedia. As an aside the man rejected my idea of $600 to fund a Bike to Work Day — on May 15, 2009 — event by giving me a $1000 budget. So, I have that going for me, which is nice. If you’re in the area, drop by for a breakfast burrito.
This upcoming week I will be without a car. The week will be a good pilot program for me.
