My car takes premium gas, so the savings are even higher for me then most people.

A few people asked me why I started riding the bike everywhere. If the did I just tell them there are a ton of benifits. If they say something like what kind of benifits, I give them a list.

1. Save on gas.
2. Better Health.
3. Running Sucks.
4. Save on car maintenance.
5. Easy Parking.
6. Build up my Farmers Tan and get my vitamin D.
7. Doing my part to cut down on dependence on fossil fuels and keep my carbon footprint low.

Usually I forget or leave one or two out, but most people say something like I wish I live close enough, or I wish I had the time. Most people seem to gain a little respect for me, and I think people who actually talk to a bike commuter would be less likely to support laws against them or be aggressive towards one.
