  • Ninety-one percent. That's the share of Greater Cincinnati commuters who traveled exclusively by car in 2014, according to the most recent community data from the United States Census Bureau. That’s a bit more than 900,000 people driving to and from work more or less every day.
    WCPO reporters Pat LaFleur and Emily Maxwell spoke with individuals who choose to be car-free in Greater Cincinnati and what motivates to do so.

    Thank you so much for this video. I’m considering moving to Cincinnati. I’m legally blind but, I can at least bike at my own pace. I have a toddler but, the reality is I can never drive again

    I’d love to do this but the lack of bike lanes is kinda scary at times.

      Andrew Nascimento this. I almost had a heart attack when a big truck honked at me.

    Where I live, a small town, the busses do not run on the weekends and they don't run before 6 am. My work is in the next town over, so it does not always work so well. However, I don't have a driver's license, so I try to make it work to the best of my capability. I really don't miss having a car though. It is hard to get a date.

    While I still own a car I'm using it very little, cycling around 200-300km per week using the bike whenever possible instead. Buying a suitable bike changed everything for me. A Tourer with everything, heavy, slow but practical as hell and comfortable. I don't mind taking longer because I'm having fun outdoors as many mentioned in the vid.

    I have run into friends while riding a bike doing errands and they have offered to drive me home. Which was nice but a little confusing. Do they think I'm out on my bike because I have no choice?

    bike in snow, wouldnt you lose traction, with all those black ice?

    • @liokin229
      @liokin229 3 роки тому +1

      You can, you just have to be careful. It's worse hitting ice in a car imo because you're going much faster.

      Why does it have to be black ice? You don't call it white snow?

    Cincinnati is the last city to not have a car if you can afford one. You see what color all the people are. Privileged.

      nice man, Used to to same thing, but would always get wheel bite. watch out for wheel bite with those pesky little bits of gravel or small stones. They can turn a cruise into a cruising for a bruising . With a bike atleast stones to suddenly jolt your wheels into locking up and stopping brutally.
