Looking sharp and riding comfortably.

A review of office-friendly bike clothes -- but the cost is pretty steep!

What do you find works well for you as bike-to-work (or meetings, or school, or whatever) clothing? I wear a lot of skirts and pants with a high synthetic content, myself, but would welcome other suggestions.

I like synthetic-fiber pants and skirts for rainy weather because they dry quickly once I'm to work. (A regular raincoat covers the upper portions.) I have a pair of rubber rainboots, too.

If I wear a skirt, I safety-pin it to a scarf or headband around my lower thigh (or to my tights) to prevent embarrassment.

I swear by merino wool and layers for cold weather, and I swear by riding more slowly in warm weather.

That's about it, really. I can't justify special bike clothes.
