Transit - the best app for buses and trains
The world's most accurate transit app. Never miss a bus or train again on our 600+ supported cities, including New York, Paris, London, Montreal and more
Transit.app
Going on seven years of #carfree pleasures and freedoms, and I love helping people get around.
I mean that, reach out — if Transit.app were a marital art I’d be somewhere between a brown and red belt.

NYT — 101 years ago today
Since then, approximately 4 million Americans have died from car crashes and today the US is an outlier in the worldwide trend toward safer streets.
One has to wonder how many more Americans must die unnecessarily before we take this threat seriously…

Look at how the top five stats dominate. How do we build our way to Vision Zero when nearly all deaths and injury boil down to "driver thought they were in a hurry."

The idea of the US is worth the fight. When all people are truly treated equally, we will have realized our potential. The fight we have on our hands now is the same fight Lincoln spoke of - "whether that nation or any nation so conceived and so dedicated can long endure." 2/

As much as I'm looking forward to Dazzling Killmen tomorrow night, it will be equally great to see a friend experience Arctic Universe for the first time.

(Irked me that for 13 years NiceRide would pull bikes for the season on an arbitrary early October date, regardless of weather.)
