Mountain Biking Helps Squash Bugs 82
Dr.Milius writes "Henning Brauer of the OpenBSD project recently made an interesting post to the openbsd-tech mailing list about how a mountain bike ride helped him relate two baffling bugs in their new BGP and NTP daemons. It turns out they were both off-by-one errors that were easy to fix but notoriously difficult to spot. Always great when the experts show us how it's done."

It's not the bike riding, it's the act of "taking a break from the problem."
I'll second that. I do some of my best coding in the bathtub, sans the dangerous electronics, of course.
