Yeah, props to the first-time commuters -- way to go guys! (and gals)

I hope some of you first commuters will continue to commute through the colder weather of winter (well in the N. hemisphere).
I can't say that I've noticed an increase in bike commuters here in NYC. We're so mass-transit oriented that gas price increases don't do much for bike commuting within the City.
OT: I borrowed the family car this weekend. It hadn't been driven for more than parking ("alternate side nyc" in Google if you must know) in months. so money was made on the gas in the tank.
