I do know one thing... each of my bicycles is worth more than my vehicle (I don't drive a nice vehicle, but I do have fairly nice bicycles.)

If I were ever to do the cost analysis, I think I would find that my food costs to fuel my ride are still more expensive than the fuel costs for my vehicle. I know we all complain about gas prices, but going to the grocery store is just as outrageous.
