    Should I or Shouldn't I?????

    Today, my boss (the CEO) joked that I needed to start wearing cycling shorts to work (due to my terrible road rash).

    So, I called witnesses in the office and he said it again!

    So, here's the question. For a Monday 8AM meeting, I'm thinking of wearing cycling clothes from the waist down, and my normal Brooks Brothers suit from the waist up. So, should I do it or is it over the top?

    Nearly everyone in the meeting will be in my 'chain of command' and everyone knows that I'm a very serious boss, but I try to be bring light heartedness to situations as a pressure release in a stressful environment...

    As long as you have a nice black greasy chainring mark on your inner calf, you'll be fine.

    PS: Oh, and also as long as the shorts are black, otherwise you could get written up for sexual harassment.

    Although tucking your shirt tail will be a touch awkward.

    Have you considered a skort? I mean, now that you're shaving you legs...

    But then again, the shorts could be a good Angus Young look

    Go for it!

    I say Go For It! And, consider a great kilt for a manly, over the shorts look. Utilikilts makes great ones! I bought one for a cyclist boyfriend, once, and he looked really great in it.
