1. Yes (well, if a circular commute to work at home can be called that)

2. Rarely, I've always seen cycling as a means of transport and basic fitness rather than a leisure pursuit.

3. Generally wear cycle-specific clothing. Never lycra now, since I developed an allergy to it (even 4% in socks is enough to bring on a bleeding rash).

4. Rest, read, maintain the wife's car, maintain our bikes, martial arts, look for a new house.

5. Possibly interested in something that is more smart/casual than sporty, as long as it does not contain lycra.
