MacFawn's Green Rides - Frederick, MD
They are called pedi-taxis, and they resemble something you might see on the streets of a big city, which is exactly where Kenneth MacFawn, who started Green Rides in Downtown Frederick got the idea.
The bike taxis can take you anywhere you want to go in downtown Frederick. For two dollars and zero fuel emissions, you can be pedaled to any restaurant, bar, shop, or parking deck in the city. A way to boost local business.
If you are looking for a nice, green family adventure, you can take tours around town as well. Jonathon Fitz-Enz had noticed the pedi-taxis around town, and took his family for a spin on Friday evening. "I liked it a lot! It's very nice, a nice way to see the city," he said after the ride was over.
Instead of burning gasoline, these taxis only burn calories, which the drivers don't seem to mind. A green way to paint the town red.
