Why not post the cost of apt rental or mortgage payments too? It might be "fun" for the homeless and they could appreciate how much money they are saving every month.

Seriously, exercises like these assume that a bicycle is a suitable substitute for an automobile, only far cheaper and without the costs. A foolish and bogus exercise for most people with family obligations and/or desire not to spend all their free time in a dense urban area tethered to the demands of public transport and or weather conditions.
