I posted this last night on the AAAC forum last night, but I haven't received an overwhelming amount of responses, so I'll try here as well. Specifically, I'm referring to commuting on either a motorcycle or a scooter, but I'm interested to hear from any cyclists as well.
I'm dressing much nicer for work lately (partly due to a promotion and partly due to these forums) and now I am anticipating a dilemma with my daily commute. I spend 9 months out of the year on my scooter. I usually ride in jeans, steel-toed boots, an armored jacket, moto gloves and a full-face helmet. Do I have to pick function over fashion in this situation, or does anyone have any suggestions for either gear that I can wear over my work attire, or a convenient way to travel with my clothing?
Lastly, for those that picked up on the literary reference of my moniker and the fact that I ride a scooter, I ask you to try to refrain from suggesting that I wear "my war time coat in the wind and sleet" even though I'm totally asking for it.
Thanks!
