The following is music to the wannabe bicyclists ears, since formal 
attire is one of the biggest impediments to biking to work.  Yes, I know 
one can shower, blah, blah, blah, etc., etc., blah.  Most people are not

the 0.5% commute trips made by bicycles in the CAMPO planning area.

"The fence between business and casual has been crumbling recently. 
There is a decline in the traditional view that the man who is wearing a 
suit is a businessman and the man who's not is unemployed."
- MASAAKI KATO, spokesman for a large apparel company, on a Japanese
campaign to save energy by cajoling men to shed jackets and
ties in summer.
