Roadside assistance - AAA versus BWC

by Rick Glos 10. January 2009 11:55

I don’t want a phone call from my wife that she’s stuck somewhere out on the highway with a flat tire or her car breaks down.  AAA has given me (and Heidi) good piece of mind and we’ve used it a few times.

But I also don’t want to be giving my money to an organization which actively lobbies car usage and against bike trails, walking trails, oil subsidizing, etc.

I heard about an alternative called Better World Club (wikipedia).

It sounds like a crunchy granola tree hugging Oregon thing to do doesn’t it?  Well, I don’t care.

Since our AAA membership is due we’re going to make the switch.

And it’s not limited to cars.  I’m signing up for the bicycle roadside assistance portion as well.
