I bet the lad on his moped was stressed this morning- loads of queueing traffic, but his filtering skills weren't up to it. I flew past him, and never saw him again.
 
Strange question:
"Having had a pleasant journey, do you feel your productivity levels in your workplace are highest having commuted by motorcycle/scooter, when compared to other means of transport?"
Considering I chose Car and Bus as my only commuting methods.

They're just trying to justify a new sales pitch.

What a ridiculous survey. I found commuting by motorbike in London far more stressful (especially when I couldn't fit down gaps that I could on my road bike) which is one of the reasons I sold it..

I keep thinking about going back to commuting by motorbike, which I could do door to door rather than drive and ride with the cycle, but the cost and the fact I wouldn't be getting free exercise any more puts be off every time.

Odd survey. Why did they want to know the strangest thing I've seen on the way to work? Hitler was singing show tunes and riding a camel but what of it.

You know you'd never had seen that if you hadn't been on a motorbike, right?

Mine was the guy who walked out of his front door, got on to his huge retro style modern motorbike and screamed off down the pavement, bumping the curb on to the road as he went. Oh, he was fully protected in an open face helmet, shades and a pair of leather shorts... Some people are idiots, some ride motorbikes. Who knew :-)
 
I like the journey question. I'm going from Beer (Devon) to Boggy Bottom in Hertfordshire, on stilts.


I've just put that my best commute was in a Howdah, as it made me feel like an Emperor, but my worsed was a march from a far east prisoner of war camp (no offence intended). The questions it then asks are quite funny.
