I'm not getting quite that screwed... 93 octane is at $3.64/gallon here. Needless to say I've been riding my bike as much as possible lately.

This morning it was at $3.50 for regular and normally super 94 is like $.30 higher. I rode 3x this week but will have to drive the pickup tomorrow because of rain. Anyway, every day I ride saves me $10+ in gas. It like I get to buy lunch for free everyday and still have some $ left over.

Not sure what the rates are at right now. I use a '94 escort to keep fuel costs down, and I sold my K1500 to my old man. When I sold it, it ran $70-$80 to fuel it up, over 2 years ago...don't wanna think about how much it's gonna run me to use it this weekend.

$4 is going to be considered a bargain. $7/gallon in 4 years According to CNBC today with $200/BBl oil.

A lot more bikes will be on the road in the future. Our bikes will pay for themselves in the long run by riding instead of not. Motorcycling is now a wise investment in addition to the great thrill.
