Transporting a suit on a bike?

[Foot]

As per the title, any suggestions how to do this without creasing the suit?

If you fold it gently and carefully into a large top box and don't put anything heavy like shoes on top it should be okay, especially if you take it gently in the corners to stop it moving around too much.

I've folded a suit in a suit carrier inside a back pack before

As defined, "a man who works in an office and wears a suit, especially a man with a high position in a company who is considered not to have human feelings and good ideas".
Sit them on the pillion seat with a lid on there head and don’t go too fast.

My method has always been wear the trousers and shirt under gear and put shoes in carrier bag with jacket folded on top in topbox. Works for me, if someone notices a crease your not being interesting enough ...

I went to a wedding with my suit folded inside my soft panniers. It just about stayed acceptable.

Acceptable will cut it.
I'm not buying hard luggage, so I'll have to risk looking a little scruffy for interviews.

It's not a problem. I often travel with my suit in a large bag, just don't bend it to hard (think roll rather than presss). For shirts I can recommended wearing it for 10-20 minutes before you need to present yourself, as the creases from the transport then go away.

How about one of these, designed for cyclists but I'm sure a few extra mph won't hurt....

It is recommended to arrive 15 minutes before scheduled to interviews (read this in a few places and do it myself). Showing you are punctual, and respect/excitement for the opportunity. Also, that way you make sure you don't arrive late if timing goes wrong, which would look very bad.

Arrive a bit sooner, ask for a coffee. Seat down reading something that looks interesting and wait for the shirt to look nice.

Good luck on the interviews! :thumbsup:

I like the look of that a lot!
May well invest in one. Cars are well overrated.

Will always arrive early too, especially since when travelling to new places on my bike I tend to take scenic routes... ie. get lost.
Thanks for the good luck! Although I need to actually get the interviews first! Fingers crossed that's a definite.
