Edit: On a quick re-read, I realize this sounds a little snippy. Sorry about that. I didn't mean it to be. You make a valid point. I'm just hoping we can refine some of our language so that sports clothing doesn't define what it means to be attired in a way appropriate for riding.
I find the "kit" just so much more comfortable on a bike than my regular work clothes, and I like to be in clean clothes at work, and there is no guarantee of the work clothes being very fresh, even after an easy ride.
