Skyrocketing gas prices have some of you finding other ways to get around town.

We did some checking and found out sales on bicycles, scooters, and motorcycles are up at some Mobile businesses. We also checked with The Wave Transit System and discovered the pain at the pump is driving more people to city buses.

We talked with one man who decided to sell his car and commute to work by bicycle.

"The savings have been considerable," said bicycle commuter, Christopher Raczkowski. "I put about 350 miles a month right now on my bike which would've all of gone to gas money and you know I get to feel good about lowering my environmental impact at a time when I think we all need to be concerned about that."

Raczkowski says he commutes 8 miles to work 6 days a week. But, he says he often takes the city bus home. And, in case you're wondering, he says there is a place to put his bike on the bus.
