Ride to Work Day!

I'm surprised I haven't seen a thread on this yet. Monday is Ride to Work Day. This should be easy for a lot of you.

I have worn a full blown suit under my gear before and everything worked out great!

I have to be in at least business casual every day at work and I still make the 40 minute commute in helmet, jacket, gloves, overpants, and full size boots.

It only says you have to "ride to work"... it doesn't say you have to actually go in and work! Use it as an excuse to get out and ride. Maybe take a slower but more scenic and enjoyable route.

I am happy to participate this year. Although I didn't see as many other motorcycles around as I would expect.

I ended up riding to work today since we didn't have to wear the dress uniform. Didn't really see any more bikes than usual but it's all good.

Rode to work, chose not to ride home at lunch, rode home, rode out to get dinner for family (I really need better luggage!), back, out to karate (no, really, I need better luggage!), and back.

Today I saw a red Honda Elite scooter and thought about how I used to be able to stuff a full-size helmet AND my entire karate gym bag under the seat.

I rode. And unfortunately so did another guy here in Boston who was killed in an accident just a few blocks from my work from an idiot cager who took an illegal left into oncoming traffic, hitting a motorcyclist who was thrown and run over by an suv.
