The site also has its own Drive Less Denver Blog that documents various people’s efforts to embrace the automobile free lifestyle.

The site also offers info and maps for all the routes around town and the Mayor’s challenge itself. Plus some other informational features about RTD and more. Check it out and enjoy. Every little bit helps.
