More people riding their bikes than driving their cars?

I've seen more people riding their bikes this week, even though its been chilly. Maybe people are finally deciding that the gas prices are too high?

I've noticed this too. I can't decide if it's that gas prices are too high or that its getting warmer here. I suspect that it's a combination of both.

I'm just glad to be commuting by bike again, even if it is only a couple of days a week. I'm a much happier person when I get to ride more and my wallet certainly appreciates filling up the car less

Yeah, I'll be consulting the maps, again, to see if I can find a moderately safe route between my home and office. There's this 1.5 mile part... And I want to commute on my comfort bike, it has the paniers, not on my road bike. I don't mind being slower, but I don't want to get smashed.

I'm lucky in that I live close enough to work that I don't need to drive. In the 2 years that I've been commuting year round, I've seen a huge influx in cyclists and walkers.

Construction around here wreaks so much havoc that I can ride faster than I would in my car, so it's a no-brainer for me.

It's great to see more people leaving their cars behind, I think I've saved about $200 worth of gas a year by cycling to work.
