I went from paying $2.89 per gallon to $4.19 per gallon in a few short months.

If there was a local instructor I'd just ride my bicycle....meh I'm so irritated at the whole situation.
Here's a teacher who gets to her class for free..on public transport. Frankly everyone here in the UK should get free public travel, they should massively improve rail and bus,tram and ferry networks (our local ones are usually very good here on Merseyside) paying attention to rural as well as urban areas and get everyone out of their cars especially the gas guzzlers that are now clogging up our crowded roads. This way our grand children may still have a planet.
