The one thing that bothers me about biking to work is the glares I get when I walk inside sweating and rosy cheeked. Due to my younger age (28), I feel as if my co-workers think that I just can't afford a car or I am just some wacky kid that hasn't discovered the usefulness of the automobile. I have not owned a car since college and I still have no desire to have one. As the saying goes, "When the people lead, the leaders will follow." I think this fits well into the scenario of bicycle commuting.
