Download There are real money savings doing cycle + ride trips instead

There are real money savings doing cycle + ride
trips instead of using a car. We did the maths for
you.
Our figures are based on money spent over a 5
year period on running a 2008 1.2 ltr Ford Fiesta
versus using a bike and Luas ticket. We erred on
the side of lower figures for the cost of a car but
the savings are still over €3,000 per annum.
Using your personal information do the
calculations for yourself to see what you can save
and don’t forget to check what the best Luas ticket
would be the for you with the Face Comparison
Tool in the Tickets & Fares section of this site.
For the cost of a car consider including Annual Depreciation, NCT costs and
Tolls. And for the cost of C+R consider adding in Annual Depreciation and the
cost of Kit (Helmet, Rain Gear & High Viz)
