Took long enough. Some of us just want to come to work, work and go home to our families.
Maybe work up to the teambuilding. Perhaps start with being pleasant to co-workers, instead of being snarky when people politely ask about your cycling habits?
Or, at the very least be open about everything. Wear a shirt that says "It's best if you just turn around. Conversation does not end well with me." Of course...people might take it as a joke. So I recommend just being polite
