Two days a week I work office hours in normal clothes (as opposed to uniform - I'm a nurse).

Commuting I usually wear leggings, t-shirt, trainers etc

Today, one of my office days, I decided I couldn't be bothered to get canged after work- chucked my cycling clothes my bag and peddalled off.

I was wearing a just above knee length dress, which became considerably sorter when I got on the bike.

Have to say - found the drivers loads more considerate than usual today - can't think whyy? One even pulled out of the cycle lane for me!

Must admit - dismounting was tricky - dress got caught on saddle, took a bit of sorting out!

I've noticed a similar thing - although I don't wear a dress to cycle home. I've got a 13 mile each way commute so a dress just isn't practical, BUT, I have noticed that I get treated a lot nicer when I have my long blonde hair in a ponytail down my back rather than tucked into my collar. Drivers are also a lot more courteous when I wear a pink cycling jacket too.
