I'm getting so pissed off at all the "just ride a bike" comments. Did it ever occur to you that not everybody has a job that will allow them to do that? I'm a freelance musician who plays a large instrument that I couldn't get onto a bike to save my life. Public transportation is not an option for me either, or I'd do that in a heartbeat. I have to travel all over Southern California, and gas prices are killing me. Please stop with all the "sell your car" crap.
