Monthly bus tickets are a good idea. I have looked into it, but because I often need to shuttle my daughter around too, the bus is not practical for a few days of the week. So it's daily tickets for me. At any rate, it has been a plan of mine for a while--and a new year resolution--to begin commuting some days by bus/bike combo. I have the bike reconditioned. Classes start Monday. My purpose is mainly diversity of travel types, a backup for auto breakdowns, health, and the love of my bike. I just don't expect to save much money versus the car.

I will rebuild Black and Green over decades as parts die, until it becomes a different car of roughly the same shape and color. My minimum fuel economy goal is 55 mpg while averaging posted speed limits. I generally top 60 mpg. See also my Honda manual transmission specs thread.
