Now the company will definitely support your efforts to bike commute due to the cost of their health insurance premium for the company, and accommodating your new 'larger' size with special furniture to keep you from suffering any injury that could cost them more in workman's compensation insurance.
Oddly, I don't think this would work, you'd just become part of 'der norm.'
That would be one way. I propose a modified version:
1. Keep riding bike
2. Buy suburban or old van - cheapest, oldest, crappiest available.
3. Park car in company-sponsored parking space
4. Remove engine and hood.
5. Plant flowers in area vacated by engine block.
6. Weld enormous loop of ship-anchor chain to chassis.
7. Ride bike to work each day, u-lock bike to anchor chain.
If they insist you use a parking space, do so.
