I did the same math when I bought my bike. How many times do I have to ride it to work to break even on this purchase? And as soon as I hit that threshold I never touched the thing again. Turns out I hate riding a bike.
What was your issue with bikes? When I got used to it, it is no brainer to pick a bike and get to work.
Basically comes down to the fact that I don't enjoy it. Every time I'm on a bike I just think "I could be in a car. I could be sitting in a comfy seat listening to music, going way faster than this, using zero effort." I like diving, I don't like biking.
Plus, the last thing I want to do after a 12-hour shift at a physical job is to bike several miles uphill to get home.
Ebike.
