581148 2007-08-17 13:09:00 I can see where you went wrong. Buy a car


Ha ha ha, I have got a car... only it is more practical and cost effective to take the train... (I am so close to the train station it is not funny)

buy a bike;)

for me, it works out at a fraction of the cost (and that is accounting for rego, tyres, insuranc etc), a third of the time, much more convienient and saves walking to/from station. :D
as for the car it is a bit cheaper than the train but then i have to find and pay for parking.

and to top it off, last time i took a train i ended up getting harassed by a whole lot of christians trying to "save" me:mad:

It would be cheaper on the train for me, I get a monthly pass which is $144 and the cheapest parking I have seen is at the stadium for $6 a day... add onto the cost of fuel per day to get into town (at least $60 a week) so it works out at 4 weeks in the month (20 working days) $7.20 to take the train plus the small amount of fuel to get to the station which is about $20 a week, so really it does work out better on the train.

Ha ha ha ha!!!! :lol:

Ha ha ha ha!!!! :lol:

it cost me on my old 250 less than a dollar to get from the waitakere ranges to the city, and on my old fxr150 it was 50cents each way - and bike parking is free.

currently i do a 55km daily commute from home to uni to work to home, and it costs me about $10-12 a week on my 400cc sport bike which i ride like stolen (so i could bring down the gas cost a bit:rolleyes: )

add to that the time cost, or saving in my case, at $12 an hour my bike actually pays for itself in the extra time i can spend at work

you'd be surprised at how little it actually costs, if mum lets you:p

581152 2007-08-18 06:29:00 Hmm, I would look into a bike in that case...

they didn't hurt it did they? first, last and only time i let a mate have a go on my road bike he left gouges in the concrete. you'd think a guy who has a 426cc dirtbike could handle a 150 :lol:
