Just curious if anybody around the world has observed a marked increase in gas prices yet, and have you encountered anybody new showing an interesting in making the switch from car to bike because of it?
Haha, try 8 dollars per gallon like a lot of Europe.

Here in Belgium average price went up from about €1.4/l to about €1.65/l.
There’s 3.78 liters in a gallon and a euro is 1.15 dollars so that’s $7,17/gallon
Our nothern neighbours in Netherlands though have it waaayy worse. Over there average prices have always been higher due to extra taxes. Their price at the pump has just about hit the €2/l threshold which is $8,694/gallon

Same, but we bought a budget EV last year and am very happy we did! My wife commutes for 60miles a day, so our gas expenses would be really high now. Gas has went up $.80/gallon since last month where we are.
We are a single car family, so I use my bike for transportation while she’s at work. So no change for me either!

Don’t worry, bikes have always been political!
Bro? 3.6 and your complaining?
CA is almost double that in the Bay Area.
Glad I have an EV and solar with a battery.
Gas is so cheap
