How many have made the life decision to solely rely on Human-powered vehicles (HPV) and/or Mass Transit as a primary form of transportation? I have and have to say there is no turning back, the decision is easy; actually conditioning your life to only use HPV's does take time. Fortunately I live in a city that is ranked very high for HPV amenities and infrastructure. This life decision limits where I choose to live, only a handful of cities in the US can accommodate this lifestyle here is a short list: Portland, Oregon Boulder, Colorado Davis, Colorado San Francisco Corvallis, Oregon Fort Collins, Colorado Madison, Wisconsin Palo Alto, California Seattle Tucson Outside the US: Amsterdam Copenhagen Sandnes, Norway Berlin Barcelona Basel, Switzerland Trondheim, Norway The top two above list were compiled from two sources: http://www.virgin-vacations.com/site...dly-cities.asp http://www.bikeleague.org/programs/b...r_list_web.pdf Keep in mind that bicycles are not the only viable HPV, many people in my city also use skateboards as a primary form of transportation. Also many combine there HPV with public mass transit some US cities that have outstanding Public Mass Transit System are: Portland, Oregon Washington, DC New York, NY Chicago, Illinois Outside the US some top Mass Transit cities are: Copenhagen Berlin Hong Kong Paris Seoul, South Korea London Taipei, Taiwan Moscow Tokyo Madrid Montreal Beijing, China Sao Paulo, Brazil The top list were formed in part from the following sources: http://www.askmen.com/top_10/travel/...t-systems.html http://www.virgin-vacations.com/site...-the-world.asp So how about you? How many here use Human-powered vehicles and/or Mass Transit as a primary form of transportation?
