You smoke on the bike???
Seriously though, you make a good point regarding our personal reasons for biking. Here are a few of mine in no particular order:
-Getting out with friends
-Just getting outside (I work inside all day ... argh!)
-Burning up stress through my legs and lungs
-Friendly competition with fellow bikers
-24-Hour mountain bike races
-The feeling of absolute freedom
-An excuse to eat like a pig
-Overall wellness of body and mind
