BIKE: Bike to work week next week--related info.

[Thorne]

According to "All-Cause Mortality Associated With Physical Activity During
Leisure Time, Work, Sports, and Cycling to Work," the largest study ever
undertaken on the benefits of exercise, bicycling to work on a regular basis
had the greatest health benefit discovered: "Even after adjustment for other
risk factors, including leisure time physical activity, those who did not
cycle to work experienced a 39% higher mortality rate than those who did."
