Iowa City Ecocabs - WOW! What a Concept!

The brother-sister team of ic Ecocabs, Vikram and Veena Patel recently opened a "green" cab company in downtown Iowa City. Their cabs are operated by "pedal power", and are basically rickshaws pulled by bicycles. There is seating for up to three depending on the size of the riders. They can be found in the downtown area of Iowa City on Thursday-Friday-Saturday nights operating from 9:00 pm to 3:00 am. You can reach them at this site ic Ecocabs .
