Bicycle Austin forum

This forum’s roots date back to the very first bike email list in Austin, starting in 1994, and it played a part in the getting the segregated bike lanes you see all over town.  Be a part of history and make a post!

"How to quit cars" - New Yorker

It’s a clickbait title, it doesn’t actually offer solutions.  In fact, halfway through, it confesses, "No remedy seems possible."  Rather, it highlights some of the main problems with car culture, and reviews two new books on the subject, one of them specific to the problems with parking.
