I was the same about riding bikes (in Netherlnads), I would always take public transport. However, now I'm always keen to bike (mostly, although as I've gotten older, I find it less fun to be drenched). I still love driving and taking public transport, but I'm terrible with locking my keys in the car... It happens about every 3 months or so, so I've learnt how to open the car with shoelaces...
LOL, I can't stop laughing at the second one! I can't even imagine the reactions of other people!
Shoelaces, I' trying to see it..... :))
Google a Youtube video... it's disturbingly easy...
