The five-year study of 250,000 UK commuters also showed walking had some
benefits over sitting on public transport or taking the car.
The team in Glasgow said cycling took no willpower once it became part
of the work routine - unlike going to the gym.
The five-year study compared people who had an "active" commute with
those who were mostly stationary.

I had a couple of colleagues who cycled to work, they always came in either drenched with rain or pouring with sweat. Not really nice for the rest of us. Then they'd take half an hour to get changed, and it'd need another half an hour to air out the office.


I have many colleagues who drive to work.

I thought you were retired?


Where did I say that?


You are Rod Speed aren't you?

The stench that comes off them after their gruelling 200 yard walk from the car park is nauseating. Then there is the smell from the dozen microwave cheeseburgers they each need to revive themselves after their ordeal.

And if they cycled it would be far worse.


No, if they cycled they would be fit and not sweat on something as low energy as a commute.


Cyclists who commute tend to cycle very fast, so they sweat.

No.


My apologies, he uses an email address similar to yours when trying to escape killfiles. Fred and a random number.

Yes.
