My office is the same. I always hear, did you really ride?, are you crazy?, do you need a ride home? I only excepted a ride home once, well actually it was not all the way home. It was snowing really hard. I told a fellow employee the route I was riding home on and to look for me. I made it 5 out of 8 miles before he caught up to me. The snow was deep and packed in places....making it hard for me to keep the bike under control...with cars sliding all over the place. So in the van went the bike.
