Save Your Gas, Save Your Legs!

With the price of gas reaching $4 in 2008 and dropping to $1.45 toward the end of the year because of the GW Cheney tank the economy plan, it makes you wonder who’s at the controls.

Well I for one think we need to take more control locally of our own spending. So what if the price of fuel skyrockets again (which it probably will) we can take an active roll in not buying so much.

Atomic Zombie has been a long time advocate for cycling and in particular building your own out of recycled bike parts.

Here’s an ingenious little baby that you can build yourself for CHEAP and it’s electric, too! It's called the Long Ranger Electric Bike. I've posted a picture on the left side of my blog for you to look at.

To check out other plans for recumbents you can build yourself put atomic zombie together and throw a .com on the end.

By the way I don’t have any monetary connection to Atomic Zombie. I just think they are an excellent inexpensive source for super build your own plans. You won't believe their prices on detailed downloadable plans! Very friendly folks, too!
