Thats essentially what I said to my coworker who is organizing this:
"I was thinking of it, but I have no idea how long it would take to ride out there and the thought of riding on those inner suburban multi lane arterial roads puts a chill down my spine. That and I don't have my wardrobe at sylvania (like I do here at work), so I would be very sweaty and looking like a bike courier for the meeting. In an ideal world I totally would though."
