Advice on Commuting

cheers viney,

yeah m'cr - notts can do blindfolded but i need the sat nav to go down south

i'll get the panniers tomorrow and start doing some test fiting for the clothes

oh can't wait now

I don't use my bike when I have to be smart on arrival. A colleague who does takes ironed shirts and trousers in his panniers. He travels up in jeans and leathers (well, textiles) with black laced biking boots that bar the gear change pad, could pass for normal shoes/boots. At the hotel, he changes into shirt and tie and rides in with his textile jacket over the shirt (usually only a 10 min ride from hotel to client, so it's not too creased by the time he gets there) and with work trouser on (no textiles on his legs ) again, typically only 10 minutes, on slow roads, so he thinks it's an acceptable risk. When he get there he shoves his gloves and lid in the top box and carrys his coat in with him.

Ceri I think this will turn out to be my plan as well.

Will let you know by the end of the week
