I bike commute 8-9 months of the year, but currently am ubering both ways during this wet El Niño winter we are having as I live without a car.<p>I estimate my Ubers this year will work out to around<p>($20&#x2F;day for uber * ~60 winter work days) = $1200<p>Most people with modest vehicles will see a total cost of car ownership costing them somewhere in the $5-10k&#x2F;year range. So I could double or triple my already heavy reliance on uber and come out ahead.<p>TLDR: For those with short commutes, a heavily uber-assisted bike commuting plan is a huge financial win. And this is not even considering the downstream value of the productivity and health benefits resulting from regular exercise. Or the value of the time I can now spend reading instead of driving.
