I believe there is a big fight to keep things the
way they are. Automotive industries do not want to
see people leaving their cars behind. I live in Los
Angeles. The traffic is a mess, yet the city refuses to
really put money into their buses. Because LA is so darn
large driving seems to be the only answer. Yet I
believe this club is a must.<br><br>We need to promote
the MANY benefits both to the body and the
environment. Cycling is an answer. I got rid of my car and use
the bus and bike.
