I find it impossible to take it easy on a/the bike, although that doesn't mean I'm fast. But it does make me glad to have a shower on arrival at work.
The -ve there is that I get dressed and undressed twice going to and returning from work, which makes the short commute take about the same as the unrelaible buses.
But the +ves are all listed above, plus being fully awake when starting work and everyone thinking you're well hard.
