This is how I have always lived. I LOVE the freedom the bike gives me. I feel more free with a bike than I ever did even when we had 2 cars. Free from the gas bill, repair, property taxes and insurance, parking permits and fees, speed limits. (Well, I suppose I'm not really free from speed limits, but it is a rare day that I even slightly exceed a speed limit!)
