What if — you took the bus to work for a week? Or even just one day?

I love when my schedule allows me to ride the bus – I can work or nap and let someone else drive.

Week without Driving is October 1 to 8.

I’m planning to take the bus from and to Crozet at least twice, thanks to Jaunt, and walk or ride to meetings in Charlottesville, and meet clients in Crozet via my bicycle.

  • What could you do to not drive at least one day next week?
  • What if you put your kids on the bus, or walked or rode with them to school?
  • I’ve had several clients this year who chose where to look for homes based on proximity to Crozet Connect bus stops; the demand is there.

Check out the schedule at the Crozet Connect site.


“What if every U.S. car trip under 3 miles became a bike ride?

~19 billion gallons of gas saved each year
That’s about 15% of all U.S. gas use
At $3.75 per gallon = $71 BILLION saved
We’d end up spending lots of money at local businesses”

Thanks, Phil
