A young entrepreneur has introduced Pittsburgh's first pedicab service. The three-wheeled contraptions, seven in all, debuted in the city's flatter neighborhoods this spring, reports the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette.
Kletter's inspiration for the human-powered transport was the rickshaws he patronized in travels throughout Asia. The 27-year-old Pittsburgh area native thinks the time is right for the new venture.
"We offer clean transportation, which aligns perfectly with Pittsburgh right now as one of the major green advocates in the country. We can also help the local community by acquainting people with the area and giving suggestions on restaurants, shops and nightlife," Kletter says.
