Carbon Trace

Carbon Trace is Andrew Cline's personal blog about "commuting under my own power in Springfield, Missouri." Here's how he describes his blog:

"Four years ago I made a personal commitment to use a bicycle as basic transportation. It's time to write a little something about that decision and what I've learned.

I consider myself a pure commuter. I do not ride for fun. I do not ride for exercise. I ride to get from point A to point B and back again. This is important to understand because it puts me at odds sometimes with the biking establishment. Biking is fun and certainly good exercise. Because riding is fun, I have fun commuting.

I am not morally superior because I ride a bicycle. I do not propose to force/shame anyone into doing it. I do, however, wish to encourage you to give it a try. And I hope Carbon Trace helps somehow."
