For many - walking / biking might not be an option.
Some areas are build AGAINST this method of transportation.
Atlanta is a great example - such Urban sprawl that you "ALMOST" need a car to get where you need to go...
i say "ALMOST" because alot of people DON"T look at what is near them.
I took a map - drew 2 circles around my house - 1 mile and 2 mile distance.
Holy cow there is alot of stuff in that area - banks - food - library - resturaunts.
As in my Sig - all you have to do is LOOK around and you can take a few miles off the road.
My next project is to build my own bike trailer. : )
