That is true; rising gas prices will make the eventual return much quicker. If the OP really wanted to save money, though, he should sell his car and get another one for around the same price that gets better gas mileage. He would be saving/making money immediately. Getting a bike because of rising gas prices is still just an excuse to get a bike. In a couple years that may change, but I'm pretty sure that once the OP has a good beginner bike for a year or two and begins to really enjoy riding, he'll want a better/faster one, and will end up spending even more money.
