Also, you yourself should know you pay more than gas in that daily figure. Your first vlog post tallied up the daily costs.

Plus you get the added bonus of eating all that extra yummy food!
Can't do that with gasoline

That is true. I hear gasoline doesn't taste too well
.
I'll keep close track and see if my food costs increase significantly in the following months.

Just drink a gallon of gasoline everyday and it all works out!
In all seriousness though, biking is probably one of the best things you can do for yourself. We all need to move around a bit more.
