Not a problem if there are showers at your place of work. Besides,
where I've done it (Florida and Arizona) you get all sweaty just
walking across the parking lot (not to mention actually getting into a
four-wheel sauna after work).

Big difference between Florida and Arizona...

I can take 100 all day in Arizona but put me in Florida at anything over
about 75 degrees (with that humidity...) and I'm miserable in about 10
minutes. I don't even care for Michigan summers anymore (been in the desert
since '97)

This is going to drive (no pun intended) my choice of aircraft some
day - I need a relatively fast 2-seater with enough room behind the
seats for a couple bikes and luggage. It helps that I own a company
that builds titanium bikes - less impact on W&B.

now bikes AND camping gear get a little too heavy on hot summer days...


Suddenly the Murphy Moose looks better...

Depending how fast you want a murphy elite might do it for ya as well.
I can fit 2 road bikes and luggage in my rebel quite easily but my
rebel is only fast when compared to a bike

It's 15 miles one way of inner city traffic and interstate... not a good
commute for biking..


Ahh, but after you have been run over by the soccer mom driving her Suburban
while talking on her cell phone and putting on makeup, you'll loose so much
weight while you are recuperating at the hospital and they are just feeding
you glucose via an IV...
