Xepherys and I bought new bikes a few weeks ago, apparently just in time. Gas here hit $4.09 on Friday and I'm really not expecting it to get cheaper. Like, ever. Boo
There are many places we can go with the bikes since we live so close to the downtown area, and having the trailer behind it means we can pick up groceries and stuff, too. Plus, my son looks so badass in his helmet and sunglasses. I wish I could post a pic.
Unfortunately, since the Detroit metro area is so huge and their public transportation system is so fucking pathetic, we'll probably be completely screwed in September when we'll both be commuting 40 miles/day to and from school/work.
At least our cars get 30+mpg. *sigh*
