Does cycling to the doctors before getting blood pressure checked have an effect on the results?
I read an answer to this just the other day. Not really, unless you get your blood pressure measured within a minute or two of stopping cycling hard.

I think I read the same answer @Greenbank did, if it was in the readers' queries slot in the CTC mag. The doc's answer was no, but they also said that blood pressure measurements in a medical setting were prone to being affected by stress, and that taking them yourself at home was usually a better way to get a reading.
