That's great for you. Unfortunately most of the rest of the country doesn't have that option.
(I do try to take light rail when I can, but there's only really one north-south line here and it's massively underfunded...and about 20 miles east of where I live. Sigh.)

Hey, that's not my fault!
But I was making fun of people who *do* have the mass transit option and still don't take advantage of it because of weird misconceptions about it...

What about a bicycle? Where I live, we have a pretty good mass transit, but still I'm often faster riding my bike.
If it ain't broken, that is. As it is, like, now at the moment ...
Was there ever a movie that could make one paranoid about the horrors in store for you if you ride a bike?

You don't need a movie for that, Masch. I always fantasize about running down the jerkoff bicyclists who refuse to stay in the shoulder where they belong. "I'm such a superspecial Bicyclist that I can ride 25 in a 45 and you have deal with it!"
KILL!!!
And that's not even getting to the issue of corking.

Yeah, for corking and "critical mass", send out the Scoops.
Bicyclists do have a tough time of it, though.

Well, I haven't actually seen it, but there was Quicksilver, in which Kevin Bacon played a bicycle messenger back in 1986, but by all accounts, the worst thing that happened to him in that movie was being in that movie.
