Put on helmet, get on bike, go. If it's cold rainy, or snowing, add a few minutes to put on my overcoat, overpants, and Totes.
The bike has automatic dynamo lighting that turns on when its dark. I don't have to plan anything, because it's always the same trip. I don't give a rat's ass about speed, heartbeat or distance. No need for post-ride analysis, other than savoring the memory of a Bald Eagle swooping over the stream or making first tracks on a snowy morning. I started riding to work because it was more convenient than driving. If I had to do all you do, I'd just drive to work instead. The bike is a tool for getting to work with the minimum mental and physical effort.

On the other hand, it takes a while to preflight my airplane, so I know what it is like to enjoy a prep ritual. To each their own, and if you enjoy your ritual, why change it?
