As much as you ride, that's fine, and it's also fine to like driving. The thread is about how much we like bike commuting better. I'm very grateful I don't have to drive much any more. Driving irritates me most of the time. Now most of my driving is (1) between the city and the country and (2) short errands in the country, where driving makes sense. I even do some errands on bike there.
Ha, fair enough, maybe I went to far with my "dead cold fingers bit". :-)
That's one of the tradeoffs I find though - bike is nicer when the weather is good, car is better for me for when the weather is bad.
