Cities in the San Francisco Bay Area now have bike-share programs. Rent a bike for an hour or a day to run errands, sight-see, etc. (More details can be found at http://bayareabikeshare.com.) Your city doesn’t have such a program? Propose it to your local governing board.
Why? Because if all Americans aged 10-74 walked or biked half an hour a day instead of driving we would save 6.5 billion gallons of gas and lose 3 billion pounds off our bodies!
