No offense guys, but you forgot that most jobs don't like it when you show up sweaty. Bike makes you sweaty, and wrinkles up your nice dress clothes. Plus you have to mess around locking it. Don't tell me that if you're in shape you don't sweat, you still do.

I vote for walking and using an umbrella. 1.5 miles is NOTHING.

That being said, I used to ride my motorcycle to work .75 miles away. After work I'd usually go riding though.

Now if you want to be cool (like me) get yourself pretty much any $2,000 used motorcycle. Cheap insurance, crazy mileage, warms up by the time you've got your helmet on, and you will enjoy it much more. Honda/Suzuki/Kawasaki 500cc cruiser would fit the bill perfectly.
