If a tree falls in the forest…..
You know how the rest goes but the real question becomes. If I don’t post often to carfreebrad, does it really exist? Thanks to the internet, the answer is yes. With that in mind I wanted to put this post up to welcome any newcomers to the site. I write here very seldom these days…

Rain Prep- SOMETHINGS HAVEN’T CHANGED(MUCH)
It’s been almost 8 years since I was a broke as hell grad student living in a new city who wanted to learn what it’s like to live life “Bike First”. I’ve learned SO much over the years but have yet to master rain prep so this video seemed like an appropriate re-post given that…

Dharmesh Shah has OnStartups….
I’ve Got CarFreeBrad & I love it! As a fan of Hubspot from a product/customer perspective, I’ve thought about Dharmesh’s founding story quite a few times, about how Hubspot got started partially out of his experience with his blog Onstartups while a student in Boston. Recently, I got to hear him tell the story at…

What Hell Is That……a dinosaur?
Sometimes in my carfree life journey, I wish my brain could just dump it all on the page because every time I try to write my fingers can’t keep up and it comes out as complete jibberish. I’ve been having one of those weeks! Although, I’m really excited some recent handlebar mods and eager to…

World CarFree Day- Repost
A Word From CarFree Brad September 22 is World Car Free Day, and in celebration we’ve enlisted Freight Farms co-founder, Brad McNamara, to give us some insight into his decision to become car free, and his experiences over the past few years! I’ve been living “Carfree” since February 2011. I still remember the first day when…

Long Time Coming…keep waiting!
In my last post(months ago), I hinted that my Carfree life and work was about to go to the next level. That was a very true statement that I’ll be elaborating on soon(I sorta’ promise) but for now you’ll just have to trust me. It’s not that I’ve lost my inspiration to write posts on…

Might be on a new level….
The CarFreeBrad journey may have just reached a whole different level of awesome with the convergence of life, biking and Freight Farms. I’ll be happy to conclude this post when details reveal themselves. Stay tuned…….
