3rd Annual Commuter Challenge
[also posted in Mid-Atlantic regional discussion section]
Hi everyone, for your consideration, the Commuter Challenge on Monkey Hill is a fun event benefitting Urban Bike Project of Wilmington. Riders are encouraged to dress for work and carry lots of weight on their bikes. This is the kickoff event for the Wilmington Grand Prix time trial and criterium race the next day. I'll be competing in a dress again this year. Thanks for considering joining the effort! https://www.urbanbikeproject.com/commuter-challenge/

Love it! A little far for me but good luck.
I feel like every time I get on the train with a bike wearing a suit someone else decides they should pull out their old bike and try it. It is the reverse of getting on in lycra and clippy clop slopes and they look at you like an alien (I do both, depending on lots, of course).

I wear a dress shirt and tie while bike commuting. I suspect I look weird. I admit that I enjoy that.
