Prettymuch. That and it should take half the time since though I could reach 30mph on my bike, I think I could only sustain an average of 15mph or so for 6 miles. I have considered it, though. For sure it'd be good for me.
And as for a full fledged motorcycle, I'm kinda considering that as well, but to get a motorcycle, I need to get my motorcycle endorsement, then I'd need to have it registered every year, and insurance on top of that. Not to mention, I'm as comfortable on 4 wheels as I am snowboarding, but on 2, the simpler the better. When I have to concentrate on driving, balance, then throw in clutch and shifting, I start to get a little wobbly. A moped is cheaper, no new license, no insurance and registration is $15 for 3 years.
So that's kinda my reasoning for that.
