    I have been using my very old bicycle to work and to shop every day for years.

    It can help you to save money and good for health.

    I used to save $10 oil per day couple years ago.
    Now these days I can save $25 per day
    Do I have the chance to save $40 per day ???!!!

    Well done :)

    I always walk places, unless of course I need to use a car or a bus (i.e. not within walking distance) then I do so.

    It's not gas. You Americans (and probably others too) just call it gas...and i'm still not sure why.
    It's quite obviously a liquid. It's made from (mostly if not wholey) hydrocarbons which are extracted from part of oil and then made into fuel such as petrol, diesel, etc.

    Anyone want to tell me why people call it gas? I'm actually quite interested...

    Gas is short for gasoline isn't it and I think gasoline is the chemical name for it.

    Bought my rather ugly looking old bike for £20 ages back , paid for itself in a week & the shortcuts I can take with it make it actually quicker to work than a car for me :).

    I don't know about most of you but - If you live where I live, you need a motor to get places.

    Yes...stop using gas...
    I don't have a car because it's so difficult to get from a place to another in a short time:D the best way is using the subway;) The traffic is unbearable ...the pollution is scary...there are no more parking spaces for cars...it's like hell around here:(
    ...stop using cars...

    I think we should go back to riding horses. I wish it was like the 1800s again. Even the clothes were cooler back then. Cooler as in, stylish ^_^

    That's a good idea, but kinda hard to do here in the Philippines.
