I want to gain some speed and was thinking if clothes would help. But it sounds like they won't really help in terms of speed.
Cool. I am also lucky to have showering facilities in our office building.
Seems like whether you ride on sidewalk vs. road, and how many stop lights you have to wait at have greater impact on speed than clothes. You could work on your climbing speed - if you climb faster that should reduce your time a bit - but that's about it - and nobody climbs fast enough to benefit from the wind resistant clothes.
