But, the tribalism got to me and I moved to friendlier places.

Interestingly, when I was car free, I rarely talked about it ... it was just something I did. It was the transportation choice that made the most sense then.
I'm car light now, and try "to use alternative transportation...for everyday activities whenever possible."
and I'd prefer to hear more about what people are actually doing while being car light or car free ... especially if it relates to cycling.
Tell stories, post pictures ... make living car free or car light look attractively possible.
