Jay Leno on driving green

Jay Leno is a car afficionado. There’s no joke about his 17,000 square-foot garage and several cars filling it. His collection, which is more like a fleet because he drives most of the vehicles, spans a 100-year period of automotive engineering.

He has a video on www.jaylenosgarage.com about the Honda Civic powered by Certified Natural Gas. He also talks with a Honda employee about how the home-fueling “Phill” machine works and how much the natural gas costs.

Unfortunately, I can’t embed the video here, but click this link to go directly to the video on the Jay Leno’s Garage site.

Andrea Kelly's week on the bus

A new view: Getting around Tucson without a car
First bus ride of the week: easy and successful
A smooth ride on day one
A faster morning ride
Home from work, heading to the gym
Did the riders disappear with the sun?
I can't believe what I saw on the way home
A book and a cell phone
A hot afternoon
To work, the mall, groceries and home again
Hourly weekend bus service is a doozy!
Andrea's last day without a car

Josh Brodesky's week on a bike

The first ride: Journey to the center of Tucson
Biking in Tucson, a brief personal history
Easy rider, the Aviation bike path
Side streets, a bicyclists best friend
Those troublesome tracks
Attack of the leg cramps!
Shopping for one
The morning after
Biking to the finish line
