I keep around a few beater bikes. If one gets stolen then oh well I'm out $75, which is less than 1 tank of gas.
Where do you live that $75 is a tank of gas?
In Europe, our cars don't need huge tanks, because they don't burn 25 litres to move to the next block.
I thinks that's about right for the UK, but at least one of my bikes is considerably cheaper.
Begs the question, why th efuck does anyone drive anywhere in this cuntry? A lot of severe mobility disabilities I think.
I know the UK is expensive, but $75 a tank is close to $10 more than my dad pays to fill his big ass truck from near empty
My f150 is 80 from bone dry at $3.50.
Yeah, I'll have to find a new wife if I try to put a few beater bikes in the garage. It'll get expensive fast.
Get rid of the car and you'll have plenty of room in the garage.
We have a kid in a wheelchair. Car is not optional.
