Christopher Snowden 9/14/2021 7:53 AMI pulled my bike out of storage. Instead of driving my car to the grocery store, I rode my bike.-
Lucinda Young 9/14/2021 5:39 PMGreat! I try to use my bike for short distance errands & find it's usually easier to get to where I'm going, I avoid parking hassles, and am in a much better mood after getting exercise, in addition to avoiding carbon emissions.
