Going Greyhound

Undriver Steve Verhey commutes weekly by Greyhound from Ellensburg to Olympia and back.  Here’s a recent “Woulda Missed This If Driving” dispatch:  Last night a skinny, pale guy wearing a T-shirt, light sweat pants, and Converse-like shoes got on the Greyhound bus at Olympia.

We drove through these cities yesterday and were, initially, encouraged as there were bike lanes & paths to the south in Bismarck, and Wind Energy [...]

Three boxes, Four hands

I met these two out walking their big boxes of computer equipment in downtown Vancouver BC. Who says you need a car to get a bunch of heavy stuff from Point A to Point B?  Woulda missed this if driving! -Julia Field

True confessions: Undriving to Undriving events is a challenge we don’t always accomplish.  (Making the Undriver Licensing Station™ more portable is one of our many works-in-progress!)  However, for Moving Planet Seattle on Sept. 24th, we were determined – so Natacha and I bused it, then hoofed it, with all the stuff pictured here. When you [...]
