We've got 1 car. If I need to go somewhere and the wife has it, I get the bus. It's a lot cheaper than owning 2 cars.
That's fantastic if your city offers busses! Or public transportation at all ๐ญ
Bikes are comparatively free
Bike theft is such a problem where I live I've been very hesitant to get another one. If they can't get the whole bike, they'll wrench off tires/seats, etc. My town might be an outlier, but I wonder how other people deal with this kind of thing when their bike is their primary form of transport.
The good news, I guess, is that there's a healthy market for bikes and bike parts. Hopefully that means more people are riding them! (Note: some percentage of this comment is a joke but even I don't know how much)
