My current place is smart business attire, but they’re cool with folk changing after they arrive. As mentioned above it’s the cyclists that help make it acceptable to turn up dressed like a penis, so no one ever bats an eyelid at me in motorcycle gear.
I wear my work shirt under my textiles and keep suit and shoes at work to change into. In the summer I’ll sometimes wear a t-shirt and change into shirt after cooling down. I’ve never liked wearing trousers under textiles, but have done when practical. Saves exposing your Batman underpants at the side of the road.
I have a top box that I leave my helmet in so I use that for storing textiles when visiting other sites. I just work for one customer now so the policy is simple. Business attire in offices and whatever the hell you like in the data centres. However I used to have different customers with a variety of dress codes. I’ve also worked in places that have suit bans, however they tended to have the worst kind of inverse snobbery. You had to dress casual, but it had to be the right casual. Your jeans cost under £200? How do you live with yourself? Etc….
When I went through a period of lots of interviews a while back I would use the CB500 with both top box and 36 litre side cases. Then I could wear full kit on the ride, park around the corner and turn up like a normal member of society having stashed to lot in secure(ish) and waterproof boxes.
While paniers are a great option if you absolutely have to change before walking into the building, they’re a pain when filtering. So I reiterate the support for a massive top box. It’s never been an issue for me when filtering, it keeps stuff dry on soaking motorway journeys and keeps stuff mostly safe when away from the bike. ____________________ 2007 CBF1000-ABS - Commuter heaven | 1994 CBR600FR - Awaiting defibrillation |

Old Thread Alert!
