Riding to work...

Ducatiph1 · Jan 6, 2014

I was wondering what you guys wear when riding to work in a shirt and tie?? I have done it once w/my leather riding jacket and came out looking like my shirt was buried in the laundry. I guess I could leave a handful of shirts and ties at work, just seeing what everyone else did when wearing their gear to work...

t-shirt on, shirt folded (and tie, as well as shoes) in backpack, leather and boots when it's colder, mesh protector jacket when warmer...

works.

I work in an industry that frowns on shirts and ties. It is acceptable though to wear snowboard boots at work but I can't ride the Pani in them.

I thought we had a massive thread a year or two ago where we all threw out our commuting tips and clothing systems, etc. I'm too lazy to look for it though.

If your commute isn't too far and you don't ride the streets like the track just wear your suit and tie ... I do every now and then

I wear scrubs... or kahkis and a polo. for work.. but neither are protective so I fold them up put it in the backpack and ride to work in my normal gear.. the shoes stay at work

I don't ride to work anymore since people don't watch out for bikes here.
I almost got t-boned during my last attempt.
Wear your gear and carry or have your clothes at work.

Ok, I got un-lazy and dug it up. It starts off talking about heated gear, but by page 3 or so meanders into commuting/clothing strategies.

I wear full gear all the time. But I have Rev'it Gear pants (leather and mesh) so quite a bit of airflow, so I can wear dress pants underneath. Usually wear dress shirt as well with mesh jacket, and pack the rest, I usually do keep extra shoes at work. Then for going home in the afternoon (when warmer) I pack everything but t-shirt and underwear.
