In the last post I was mentioning the great opportunity in car-free-dom to play card and board games on the train. On that theme – who doesn’t like a quiz when they are travelling around car-free for having a bit of fun?

OK, so if you don’t enjoy a quiz this is the time to check-out a different blog post – maybe on some interesting car-free related podcasts, ‘meditative biking’ or enjoying bird song. If you do like a quiz then here we go. The answers are at the end of the post below the image – good luck!
