I really love bikes and would kill to be riding one this summer. Bikes are fun, burn less gas, have relatively low insurance, and take up less parking space, however they are inherently more dangerous than cars and can be a pain in inclement weather. I've never commuted on a bike (at least not far) but I wonder if it would take some of the fun out of riding one. I know many people use bikes as primary transportation, but I still see them as secondary. Apart from the parking issue, another cheap civic would probably be more useful overall. I think you want one more than need one. Again, i certainly can see why, but i'd be pissed if I had to go to work and it was freakin' pouring and I had to ride a sportbike to work. Then again maybe I don't want anyone else to have a bike if I can't...
