  1. Hi TT Byron Shire,

    My name is Rod from Jayride.com. We haven’t met, but I noticed that you are building a transport links page – really well done!

    I thought I’d take a wild shot in the dark and see if you would like to add us 🙂

    Jayride.com is Australia and New Zealand’s largest carpool and rideshare marketplace – we help people find the most fun, cheapest, or most unique ways to travel from A to B, including ridesharing, buses, shuttles and more. Really great unique ways to travel!

    We work with Transition Towns across Australia and New Zealand to help their audiences travel with less petrol cost, and in more sustainable ways.

    I’m sure we can offer a great resource for your visitors, and we’d love to try!

    Take a look at http://www.jayride.com – if you like us, then we would love a link from your page and in return can happily give you a shout-out on our Twitter and Facebook in return 🙂

    Thanks for taking the time to read this email.

    Have a great day,

    Rod
