It's a little sad that we need to actually say this, but:

Don't be an asshole or you will be permanently banned.

Respectful debate is totally OK, criticizing a product is fine, but being verbally abusive will not be tolerated.

Focus on discussing the idea, not attacking the person.

To follow this advice, I'd end up getting my bike out of the garage, riding around the block ... then going back inside to turn on my work laptop. I love working from home.

That being said, a 15 minute morning bike ride before work would still be a good idea.

When I work from home, I bike with my dog for 20-30 minutes in the morning. On office days, I only bike 5 minutes to the train station…

I used to have a wonderful 11km bike commute along the river, my favorite of all time.

That sounds lovely! I live in a city that has parkways and greenery along most of the river front -- if that were my route to work each day, I'd find it rather soothing. Beautiful path.
