To take public transit in my city costs $1200 a year. Even though I've had a bike stolen once every 3 or 4 years over the last quarter century, it's still a hell of a lot cheaper than the next cheapest transportation option by a wide margin.

I have 2 types of bikes -- a beater that I'm ok getting stolen once a year or so for the convenience of feeling ok locking it anywhere, and others that I would never leave unattended in the city but use for exercise, commute, or offroad recreation.
