I know it may not fully “count” for the Challenge, but I rode my commuter bike today to the South Miami Metrorail station. I ordinarily ride Metrorail to work downtown daily. Since I typically wait in a long line of cars at Red Road to cross (southbound) U.S. 1 and drop off my daughter, today’s commute was actually a little bit FASTER than driving! The July heat, however, did a number on the freshness of my business attire. I hadn’t ever noticed they have really good bike parking at this station - it’s under constant observation by the Wackenhut dudes. I wouldn’t envy those of you who had to find buses out to Doral though, much less having to cross the street or walk a block in what was practically a swamp just 10 years ago.

How can our concept of “business attire” evolve to meet the reality of our environment? There will be sweat. How do you deal with it? Guayabera? Quick-dry shirt from Jet’s Outdoor? Commuting in something cool and keeping laundered dressewear stored at the office? In all situations carrying a handkerchief is a must.
