On the garage wall I have a row of hooks, a wire shelf and wire basket devoted to helmets, gloves, glasses, lighting equipment, clamp-on racks, trunk bags, panniers, and so forth. The primary clothing articles I keep in in the bedroom, where I dress, with a drawer devoted to cycling clothes.

Winter has slowed my routine with all the extra layers, including the obligatory standing outside for a moment to guestimate which layers I'll need. Neoprene booties often seem more work than warm toes are worth on a short commute.

The wierdest part of my routine is waiting at the school bus stop with my 6yo son while completely dressed up for the ride.
