DH wants to buy a bike for himself and for me and one of those trailer things for DD and an attachment rider thing for DS. I think he's just throwing $1000 or so out of the window. I bet we'll go biking two or three times this summer because we'd have to pack the bikes up on car (can't bike around my nabe -- too hilly). I don't want to bust his bubble, but it's such a waste. Still, he's so excited about it. What should I do? [ Reply | Watch | Flag ]

People bike in SF, a lot of them! If you get mountain bikes, the gearing will be really low just to enable the rider to get up steep hills. It won't be a waste of money if you get the bikes, get in awesome shape, save $$$ on gas and cut your greenhouse emissions! [ Reply | More ]

sounds like a huge waste of money if you aren't going to use it. Can't he do it just for himself and one of the kids? [ Reply | More ]
