Bicycle, Bicycle, I Want to Ride My Bicycle.....

You know what's pretty rad? When you can bike to work, every day, without fail. Growing up on the east coast, that definitely was NOT an option, unless you enjoy frostbite... Ever since I moved to Santa Monica I've had the good fortune of being able to bike to and from work. It's not only making me feel pretty damn healthy, but I don't have to pay for gas (thank god), don't have deal with traffic, and don't have to worry about all the carbon I would emit if I had to drive. If any of you live within 5 miles of your work, and don't have to go through sleet or snow to get there, I really recommend ditching the car and getting on a bicycle. Seriously. You ever seen anyone with a frown on a bicycle? Me neither.

What's my Cause?
Thats tough. I mean, the ability of every person on this planet to have access to basic necessities and an opportunity for economic success is my hope in life. I guess that would include human rights, environment, community, health, and youth right there.
But what about Arts and Animals? I believe animals have the same rights as humans... I'm not a vegetarian but I do believe animals should be treated fairly, no matter if they are going to be killed anyways.
Arts? Art is what makes a culture thrive, it's what gives the people something to believe in, an outlet, something to distract and take them away from the day to day monotony life can sometimes bring. You cannot have a flourishing culture without the inclusion of art.
Well, I guess I'm for all the causes on this site. But if you ask me what I'm really passionate about, what really drives me, and what I really want to do in this world, check out this site -- www.nextbillion.net.
