It's good to get some facts backing what I thought: just being gentle during the first few (500?) miles will be enough. Just ride!

It would be interesting another comparison of warming-up methods: idle for a few minutes, then ride as hard as you want, versus riding right away just being gentle for the first few (10?) miles.

I use the second method. I think it's more efficient, more "eco-friendly", and takes less time and fuel. (I do a short commute with my bike every day, so... every little helps!)

For some reason, those in my area who like to let it idle for some minutes to warm-up, usually have exhausts that are way too loud Undecided
