I cahnge at work. I'll bring a large pack to work every once in a while and leave the cloths there, rotate through, then bring home and wash. I don't really wear my work cloths to anywhere but work, so they pretty much live there

Business casual Monday - Thursday = khaki pants, docker shoes, golf style or long sleeve oxford shirt (bike or cage)
CasualFriday = jeans, t-shirt/long sleeve T/sweatshirt, boots (tennis shoes if in the cage)

Don't care what anyone thinks. Not passin' up ridin because of work attire.

I usually wear my uniform to work just put a jacket over my uniform shirt, but I bring clothes to change into and especially if it's warmer and I'm not going to wear the jacket anymore.

My boss just finally relented and lets me wear jeans and a nice shirt to work during the months I ride to work...
Same here. I wear regular work type clothes when I have to drive the car, and if I have to go to court (I'm a paralegal) I make sure I at least have something in the office to change into.

Business Casual so I just ride to work in my work clothes. Did it look stupid? Don't care, I was riding.
Same here. I wear a leather jacket as needed; been wearing chaps lately for the cold New England mornings. Chaps over chinos? I don't care if someone else thinks it looks stupid; it beats freezing. I always have a t-shirt in the tour pack to change into if it's a hot afternoon, although that's not likely to happen again for a few months. Fridays I can wear jeans, but t-shirts are still a no-no.

I used to wear a lightweight cotton 1 piece cover all, then slip it off and into the saddlebag. It keeps the road grime off the "dress" clothes and didn't add much bulk. I also carried a pair of boots for the ride.
