I'm telling you, when the weather gets nicer I'm getting my bike back out. Its nice being able to go places for free. I don't mind riding 5 miles or so on a bike. I get enjoyment from it. I used to ride 20+ miles a day in the summer like 3 years ago, then I got a life, but I might start doing it again. Pedal bikes are cheap! I've ridden my bike to autozone before, and I'm not scared to do it again! You should see the faces I get though.
