Thanks to the American Public Transportation Association for the great Buttons ~ Ride Transit!
So I got my APTA buttons today. I’m such a nerd, but I love them. Many thanks to Mark Neuville for sending them over. I really appreciate it. Go visit the APTA website if you have a few minutes. It’s a great site with lots of information about how you can rediscover your city via public transportation.
There really is something nostalgic and community based about taking public transportation in that you get to see and meet so many interesting people you would not have otherwise met by driving by yourself in a car. So on that note, are you taking public transportation as often as you could? If not, give it a shot. It’s not as bad, dirty, loud, noisy, smelly, etc. etc. as you might think it is. Really it’s not. So enjoy Illinois!

I think it’s funny that the CTA now seems to be pushing folks to use their bikes. I just got a CTA/bike map from some people standing outside the Belmont Red Line station.
