Dude it is so liberating! You actually make eye contact with other human beings and sometimes talk to them and sometimes they take you on dates or share their whiskey or comic books with you. You find interesting things on the ground and pick them up. You get to read all the flyers on telephones poles so you always know what concerts are coming up. You get to stop and pet dogs all the time. You can ride your bike while chugging a tall can and down here no one cares. If you ride the bus you get to read or nap instead of stressing trying not to kill anyone. You don't have to pay for insurance or gas, and you never have to spend 15 minutes in a parking garage looking for a spot. You get to take mad shortcuts! You get to explore! You get to ignore all traffic laws and run redlights and shoot other drivers the finger as they look jealous! Biking to work wakes you up way better than coffee!!! Grahh!!!!!
Oh yeah plus exercise and the environment or whatever.
TRY IT FOR ONE WEEK! JUST TRY IT
 
I worked me arsse off for over 40 years to buy the car of my dreams; a 1958 Jaguar XK-150. I have owned this car for just over a month and I can't wait for Spring so that I can finally drive it.

If you think that I would even consider giving it up, you are sadly mistaken. I will gladly pay whatever it takes to drive this vehicle for as long as I can. I have gone to great lengths to be energy efficient - recycle and this is my reward for being a responsible citizen for the last 58 years.

And if you see me coming down the road this Summer, get out of my way. I don't want you scratching the paint with your freakin bike.
