Yeah I was looking at doing that, instead found pedal power alot cheaper and you get fit too.

Only problem is the 10kgs of wet wether gear to put on can get tiresome but biking when it snowed last week was fun.

And dodging cars and buses makes everyday a new challenge.
Otherwise buysell has heaps of mean deals if ya prepared to look around abit. There are some nice buys from retired folk who only used their car once or twice a week to go down to the shops, seen quite a few of those in absolute pristine condition going for $500 you just gotta get in quick.
