Time for a funny story. You know those dreams people have of being naked in front of everyone?

I used to commute in street clothes most of them time but sometimes in cycling clothes. I kept everything I needed at my office.

One day, I got to work in my tights etc and realized I had taken my trousers home. So I was literally at work with no pants. I had a dress shirt so I just wore it like a tunic. My boss told me not to worry about it, but I was embarrassed.

Just to add, I keep a Topeak Morph in my office in case my tires go flat.

I used to keep a floor pump, but ran out of space.
