It's possible, provided you live near a pulse stop. Our bus routes leave a lot to be desired, but the Pulse is pretty regular and as a bonus stops at Willow Lawn (shopping and groceries and some restaurants), Scott's addition (breweries and some nightlife), downtown (arts and restaurants), and Church Hill (some stuff). Your problem would be when you want to do anything else, like go somewhere specific not on that route. It's gonna suck.
