This is great!!
BTW, I have been cycling to office daily for the past two months. It's definitely faster than a bus (1.25 hours), bike (1 hour), car (1.25 hours); assuming peak traffic. I reach exactly in 40-45 minutes (irrespective of what the traffic is like) covering a distance of 15 KM one way.�
Every argument that I had against it has come to nought.�
1) Too far2) Not fit enough3) Too much pollution4) Will take too much time
I am now in the process of evangelizing this in my team and have already converted two other people. Hopefully more will follow :)

Absolutely, please share
I also have absolutely no shame in admitting the following; if it can get more people cycling.
1) I was hardly the model of fitness when I started out. I was at least 10-12 KG overweight2) I was not leading a healthy lifestyle at all. I hadn't exercised for the past 3 years3) It was difficult initially for the first week or so but it got far easier after that.�
The *only* caveat is that you need to invest in a cycle that's easy to ride.�

As for cars - it is simple if you look at individual level you might
feel safer in a car but if everybody started driving cars the number of
accidents only increases - scraping and all such happen but more to the
car! :))

Cycle is definitely faster on the Road.
I commute from Rajajinagar to Domlur with following times:
Cycle: 50 mins
Motorcycle: 50 min
Car: 80 mins
With Cycle, there are the following overheads ..
1. Shower in office / Shower at home: total: 20 mins overhead.
2. Pack clothes for commute: 5 mins.

I did mention increased number of cars is not helping either. Now the
deal is to get a collective inclination towards bike and we are working
towards that by getting as many bums on the saddle as possible! :))

OTOH, on most city roads, you generally tend to be cycling in the same
speed as a car. One rule I always follow is to leave 3/4th to 1 foot of
space between me and the footpath. This way if somebody side-brushes me,
I have time and space to recover or if someone tries to push me off, I
have some leverage.
In smoothly flowing traffic , the risk of an angry or impatient driver
hitting you is less. On very slow speeds , its generally low impact.
