Re: HPV bicycles 600+ mpg

The notion of "outlawing" personal vehicular traffic - I LOVE IT!  Don't get me wrong - I love having a car and the freedom it affords but imagine a world or at least a country (USA) where instead of all of us paying about $300 on average for our car payment, gas, insurance, etc - that money went into a fund that paid for amazing mass trasit.  Perhaps there would be allowence for travel beyond the "grid" to remote suburbs...I know it's far fetched but I'd do it and I think one day it may not be a simple choice but rather something that will be mandated - the cities are too crowded and getting worse - Bikes should be respected on the road and not seen as an inconvenience to some knuckleheaded drive in a hurry to nowhere!

 I think this site is about change and inspriing personal change which many (I include myself here) are afraid to make as we have grown acustomed to certain conveniences - we need to realize that it's about survial and the world we leave behind - it's time for drastic change in some cases and I would love it the notion of each and every household having 3.2 cars became a thing of the past and each household had 6.5 bikes!!!!

 Just a thought -
