I know not everyone understands why people bike to work.  Hell, I do it and sometimes I don't understand why.  Today happened to be one of those days.  But with gas still slowly creeping towards $5/gallon and Chicago dealing with the highest gas prices in the country, I don't understand how the holy fuck car traffic could be so backed up either. 
I might still drive occasionally, but I will laugh my ass off this summer as gas prices go absolutely nuclear.  Picture the clusterfuck on lakeshore drive during the snowpocalypse, then imagine a summer where people are abandoning their cars where they stop b/c they're completely out of gas.  And there's me, on a bike, gleefully weaving around some douchebag blocking the bike lane. 
It almost puts a smile on my face just thinking about it.
