Very enjoyable digression about music. Thanks, all.
Back on topic ... my car-light year as usual, didn't include enough time spent riding my bike for pleasure. My car did prove invaluable in getting me to side jobs I could not have reached without some sort of motorized, enclosed, weather-proof transport (slept in the car to save hotel costs once, too.) For one of those jobs, my car also transported one of my bikes, which made getting around a lot easier. In most cases, where i work, bikes are not allowed.
The other valid use I have for a car--taking my mountain bike to a trail head--I didn't get to exercise at all. And now, having realized that ... i will start making plans to make that happen.
