Same here. I feel for the guys who have to do the daily commute on a bike. Thank the Lord I am blessed with 4 wheels, as well, and can choose that extra protection. Bikes for me are weekend toys, and that is dangerous enough. All boils down to risk versus reward, and the risk of a daily commute in crazy Houston traffic far outweighs any reward.
