$1600 in TTC fares not spent

Toronto, 2012.09.29

My records indicate that I've saved $1600 in TTC fares since late March of 2011 by cycling to work on many days. Part of the savings has come in the form of the third trips I frequently take on errands while on home - the stops along the way that would require a third token. It adds up - that's more than twice the price of the bike I bought this summer, and is much more than I've spent on my two certifications, so far.
