What I've been wondering is how we will get people to natural areas. I know not everyone would fall into this category, but there are people whose hobbies involve getting from the city to the country in their off or retired time. I ask this because I'd like to see some thought go into it. It would be nice for me to give up a car but I haven't worked out yet how to do that and be able to go where transportation can't bring you.

Ideas?
