One NFC tag on a bike starts your playlist, kills Wi-Fi and logs the ride in one tap

A user shared a handy NFC automation: sticking an NFC tag on his bicycle that, with one tap, starts his playlist, disables Wi-Fi, turns on Do Not Disturb, and begins a cycling workout on Apple Watch — saving about 30 seconds per ride.
He applied the same trick to his water bottle as a hydration reminder. It's a cheap, easy-to-copy automation combo of NFC tags and shortcuts.
