Exactly. I keep telling people that this my exercise and I actually enjoy it most of the time. And those few nasty days when I don't enjoy it, well... it becomes a habit after a while, an addiction and it makes my day when people think that I'm nuts
I'd sometimes make silly faces or twitch
Lucky though, a lot of people ride to work here, there are lost of foreigners here from other continents and for them there is nothing weird about cycling to work.
So yeah, an hour on mass transit (or in a car) is time wasted, time not enjoyed, I gain nothing from that. The same time on a bike is not wasted. That's how I look at it.
