Proposed MBTA Rate Hike, Wont Effect You If You Ride Your Bike
Written by Boston Biker on Jul 09The MBTA is proposing a 20% rate hike(pdf). Which for people who have low incomes, and who rely on the T to get to work is going to be a big hit.
But consider this, if you were to ride your bike 20% of the time, the rate hike wouldn’t effect you at all. Ride your bike once a week, or perhaps every day, but only during the warm months, and it would be as if the price had stayed the same.
You would also probably lose a couple pounds, get a little more in shape, get nice calves, see some nice sights (like birds and other bikers), and probably discover that it is a lot easier to ride your bike to work than you think.
See you on the streets!
