consider
The first step is to think about your commute. If it’s working well for you, great! But if it isn’t working as well as it used to, then maybe it’s time to consider making a few adjustments.

The second step is to consider your options and decide on which you are interested in trying. This is all new and there are a lot of variables, but you don’t have to recreate the wheel or do it all yourself. That’s the hard way. Check out the step-by-step guides below to learn how to use some of your options.

prepare
The third step is to trust your preparation, set a day and take action. Start small. Try it on a weekend or a day off when you aren’t rushing around and can figure out the small new things that you hadn’t thought about or planned for. Then try it for real, and schedule a good day to try it for a commute.
The trick is to take it one step at a time and just give it a try. Try a new mobility option over the weekend. Target once a week as your day to choose mobility. Overtime, you can try different options, decide what works for you, and that’s great.
