Play to your target audience; when I applied for CIO at a City where I knew the mayor was a runner I put my Ironman finish and other outdoor hobbies in my resume. For my current job I left it out because I knew none of the interviewers had an interest in sports. In general I wouldn't put it on there. The biggest impact cycling could have (at least in California) is to ask if there are facilities for people that bike to work; that always impresses people.

Not a path I'm interested in, myself!
We're going through a similar issue; unfortunately most of us don't go to the right church to move up. Promotion means not working from home and its not a raise so I'm not going to lose sleep over it.
