This is for all those who are sick of being trapped in sprawling suburbs with underfunded and inadequate public transportation systems.
This is for those who are tired with cars and all their associated costs including registration, insurance, gas(petrol), services, parking, tickets and the actual car, just so they can function in society.
This is for those who are sick of sitting in traffic, period!

This is for those who like to reverse the social, economic and environmental damage caused by a car dominated culture.
