Car Talk: Jason Sibley Liddle Makes the Leap to Expand on Mill Valley’s Ever-Growing Car Culture
“Creating such communities isn’t easy these days, with work-from-home, social media, and a sense of isolation haunting previously bustling places,” Liddle says. “This is my niche way to chip away at the loneliness pandemic, genuinely and with the intention of strengthening community bonds.
