Gas up - Let's Go! Posted July 16, 2010 Share Posted July 16, 2010 I have a car, it's done 4K miles in a year, total waste of money, but I get a wad from work to have it, and I need to have it just-in-case..... Three bikes and I covered about 30,000 last year between them all. Unless it's shopping (the sort I can't do on the bike), family trips, or seeing customers (avoided like the plague) then it's the bike for me.

Ttaskmaster Posted July 16, 2010 Share Posted July 16, 2010 Bike, bike and err... bike. Every day, every weather. The Mrs also has a car, which she insists on far more than I'd like, usually because she wants to wear a skirt or somesuch. I call her out on it, but she doesn't pay any attention.

johnsnownw Posted July 16, 2010 Share Posted July 16, 2010 We only have one car, and that is used to get things I can't fit on the bike. Also, living in MN doesn't really allow for a good ride during the winter...ice and snow and whatnot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
