Do you use it solely for trips to work and back? I'm wondering if your stats imply I'm saving similar money. I ride most of my trips in the city instead of taking the subway at $2.50 per trip. I do shopping and errands by bike.

Oddly enough, I'm also a member of Citibike, which is about $98 per year. Sometimes I like to ride someone else's bike. $98 is insanely cheap.
