Welcome to Drive Less, Live More
Gear up to "Bike To It" and
Drive Less, Live More!
Last year's Drive Less Live More Campaign was a success with hundreds of people powered by alternative transportation showing up to the many great events through the season.
With the 2010 campaign, we have a few new and exciting events and programs for you to participate in such as Bike to the Dragons Game, the Bike to Work Event Starter Kit, and more, in addition to the rides, events and programs that have become the foundation of the Drive Less Live More initiative over the past few years.
What is Drive Less, Live More?
Drive Less Live More is your connection to healthier, cleaner, more affordable transportation choices within the Greater Dayton Region.
As Americans we love our cars. We think nothing of driving less than a mile to the bank, the store or even from one parking lot to another at a shopping center.
As our waistlines – and our dependence on foreign oil – increase, the quality of our life and air decrease. But it’s not as if we are trying to pollute our environment or be less active, it’s just become second nature to grab the keys and go.
But there is a better way. Residents of the Greater Dayton Region have a variety of travel options – biking, walking, riding regional transit, or carpooling.
The Miami Conservancy District, Miami Valley Regional Planning Commission, Greater Dayton RTA and Five Rivers MetroParks have teamed up to bring you the Drive Less Live More campaign where you can save money (see how much money it really costs to drive your car with compute your commute), get fit, win prizes and improve the air you breathe.
