As of today I am 100% car-free. No more personal vehicle. No more car insurance payments. No more $$$ maintenance, accidents, breakdowns or tickets. No more high blood pressure, stress or anxiety about parking/traffic.

No plans for a new vehicle but local Twitter ebike lobby is basically a 24-7 commercial for how much fun they have. My staffer @MattPrivratsky loves his EV. A really stellar rideshare non-profit called @hourcar has stations near me & throughout St. Paul. And of course, transit.

Anyway: today is just a small personal celebration for me of a new chapter. In general we should make the world so everyone can get to where they need to go safely, quickly and for very little cost, period.
