I like riding my bike enough as it is, but the minute I realized all the knock on effects (clearer head, giving my eyes a break from the screen, etc.), is when I started loving it.
I think framing it the way you have here would be a much more effective strategy to motivate people than describing it as a "challenge" or some sort of grind. "Your eyes will hurt less, and your mind will clear up" is an easier sell, yaknow?
When I rode today, what happened with pretty cool. And I am happy I was recording. All of a sudden, I felt like a really weird, almost exaggerated calm. That doesn't happen to me much. It almost always happens to some degree when I ride, but this time it was, not to sound over the top, but intense. So I sat on a bench for a while. And, yeah, it felt exactly like you describe.
Cycling - especially if you sweat a little (or a lot) - has that effect. It's so cool. It's nice to hear how you framed it. Right on.

Completely agree.
