I've never had a license and nor do most of my best friends. For your curiosity, here are some factors I see: • I grew up in a small town with environmentally conscious friends who chose to bike in all weather because of their beliefs. • As I've moved between metropolitan hipster-areas (i.e. Williamsburg), I've found that same cultural attitude. Riding year round is a cool and a 'right' thing to do. • Since I've lived in metropolitan areas, driving is expensive and the difficulty of parking makes it unattractive. • I don't want to live anywhere that isn't walkable. Even Brooklyn was unsatisfying in that regard. I'm trying Europe next. • Getting a license seems relatively difficult, though it's probably easier than I think it is. • Most of my free time is spent on my computer or otherwise in my house, learning and making. • I'm not sure how expensive cars are, but I don't want to spend any extra money. • All of my friends who don't work in tech are just scraping by. • Yeah, student loans.
