Car Sharing

While my bike is my main mode of transportation (and has been for the last 10 years) I am also a frequent user of the bus, lrt, other people's cars, and of course walking. Today I decided that the car was going to be the best use of my time and money. Twin Cities' Hour Car was there for the rescue.

Having lived in other cities that have car sharing programs (Chicago, NYC, Philly) this is the first time I actually have had the real need to use it. I needed to do a bunch of errands this morning and doing it by the other modes was just not going to work since I had to be in the office at 9:00 am. Car Sharing was the perfect solution for me today. For those individuals who are interesting in different ways to get around town check out these website and resources for a multi-modal approach to life: Hour Car, Commuter Connection, and Smart Trips.

Re: hourcar

I've been using Hourcar for several years and it works well for some things but their cars are all small and don't hold a lot of people or stuff. I can't bring my whole family in the car and I had to borrow a friends car this spring when I bought a new screen door.
