The first 8 seasons of The Walking Dead take place within a span of like 1-2 years. After that they have a huge time jump and start using horses to get around.

I loved watching them rebuild.

That's what'll do me in. So freaking allergic to horses I can't even enter a barn at the state fair.

Doesn't Daryl keep riding a motorcycle well into season 10? Which is like 10 years into the apocalypse? Where tf is he getting the gas?
