I should ride my bike more. Good for my health.

This is my current ride:

Does that have a fork on one side only? Man, bikes have changed.

Edit: Whoa! $3500 for a bicycle??

lol. I find that rideing bikes in some citys may possiable end in death.

I hate cycling in Dublin, can't see how only 6 people died last year :/
Back to moving on foot or driving now, thanks to my bike being stolen.
Moving to the Netherlands in the near future, we'll see how it goes there

The real question: Is cycling the fastest way to get around?

Some things keep me from using either a bike or a motorcycle for my average commute.

1.) Rain

2.) Hills.... big ones... my city is nothing but hills in fact the name comes from an indian word for many hills (lets see if anyone can guess)

3.) Vehicals - Rarely if ever do they give way or move over scaring the living crap out of me.

4.) Lazy - Yep I admit it.
