It's a little sad that we need to actually say this, but:
Don't be an asshole or you will be permanently banned.
Respectful debate is totally OK, criticizing a product is fine, but being verbally abusive will not be tolerated.
Focus on discussing the idea, not attacking the person.

They had multiple study groups, including walkers. Walkers, cyclers, and mixed (walking and inactive) were the "active travelers" groups.
The article did not call out that they found cycling better than walking, only that
The title and quote from the researchers imply cycling is better than other forms of regular moderate exercise, but provides no supporting statistic for cycling being better. The only statistic quoted was that exercising is better than not exercising.
If the article is going to suggest cycling is better than other activities, they should quote the statistic implying that it is.
Eh? The graphic shown prominently in the linked summary article suggests that cycling is much better than walking. And this seems plausible to me - cycling is not just exercise, it requires quick thinking, balancing, interacting with traffic, judgements regarding risk, speed, efficiency, etc. .
Haha! Yeah, my bad. I read most articles in text mode; I didn't see the graphic until I turned that off.
