I moved to the city

Yeah, I moved this weekend to pittsburgh (I made a thread on gassavers a while back but didn't end up moving to that apartment). I used to live in a small town 20 miles away. Now I live 3.5 miles away from work insted of 21miles. Plus, I have tons of places to shop within 1 mile. Looks like I will be displacing some miles by bike.

Good for you. I also changed my commute many years ago. I found tho that money saved by me was well spent by my wife.
