much more healthy in this way and less costly, no gasoline, warranty etc...
Though you not only drive in the city alone. Maybe in huge cities. But even then, you are slow on longer distances, which means you lose time, which is money somehow.
And you don't want to drive your girlfriend around on the backseat of your bike too. Girls look, don't believe emanzipation, still to what a man has reached to create a life for both of them.
a well i don't have a girlfriend, and i don't think i need one, i can do 50 Km/h easily in a bicycle, this is more than enough to move from place in the city to another place always in the same city
i can only agree if we are talking about travelling outside your city, to reach a new one, but there are bus for that...
50km/h is a lot in the city. Especially better than most cars in rush hour.
And yes, if you don't go to parties or so then busses are fine too. Otherwise they don't drive at good times at the night too. Except it's a really big city.
keep in mind that with all the traffic lights, that we have here, basically every 500 meters or so, you can't really go mad with speed, so a 20-30km/h in most cases will suffice, which is a joke if you have good legs
i don't know how many there are where you live, but traffic lights are helping more us cyclist than anything

Yeah i know, since you can cross the streets, use the streets and all. Though hopefully you don't drive as crazy as these new york bike couriers.
