Which defeats the purpose.aem2https://www.blogger.com/profile/09695937897474643363noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8356723782465446786.post-287973921955584802011-05-26T16:10:26.183-04:002011-05-26T16:10:26.183-04:00Did you hear about the DIY group in Mexico from ea...Did you hear about the DIY group in Mexico from earlier this year?<br /><br />http://www.treehugger.com/files/2011/01/guerilla-diy-bike-lane-guadalajara-citizens-video.phpStevenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8356723782465446786.post-67913169670826990862011-05-26T10:55:13.496-04:002011-05-26T10:55:13.496-04:00I've always wanted to this.
