Don't buy a bike because it's "the craze" or because everyone else is doing it. There comes a large degree of responsibilty if you want to ride safely and not greatly increase your chances of ending up like those horror stories. Everyone buys for different reasons, if you don't know why you'd want one then I suggest you wait a little while to jump in.

Some Pros:
-gas mileage
-car pool
-parking
-piMp fact0R y0
-enjoyment

Some Cons:
-losing money by dropping it
-theft
-weather
-death

Yea... death sucks

I wouldn't give up riding for anything. Once you've tried it, its the most exhilirating thing you can do besides sex (well I guess it depends who you do it with) And um.. its the most fun you can have by yourself (also depends how much lube your using)

I didn't know this year was the "bike craze" that's stupid. If you're planning on getting a bike for the craze please don't! Spell check owns you.
