Not owning a car is a great way to stay fit, save money, and avoid loads of hassle. This is a blog with thoughts, photos, ideas and links about carfree life: walking, active travel, public transport, places and spaces - things that matter to everyone, but even more when you don’t own a car. Photos are by me unless credited. Forthcoming: book on carfree life. Meantime, get in touch via email at carfreelifeoutsidethebox@gmail.com or Twitter @carfreebrighton

Sign of The Times: Cities Fit For Cycling
Following a serious injury to one of its bike-borne journalists, The Times has launched a campaign to make British cities “Fit for Cycling.” What’s good for cyclists usually makes life better for pedestrians too, and it’s great to see that the campaign’s eight point manifesto includes a call for 20mph to become the default speed limit in residential areas where there are no cycle lanes. You can support Fit for Cycling, which is outside the Murdoch paywall, with pledges, tweets, and letters to your MP, here.
