I also have an employer who is understanding this need due to compensating the bike rental cost so that I need to pay myself only the difference between bike and a cage, if the bike is more expensive (as it tends to be in every place).
I do get weird looks at the airports and planes when traveling with riding gear on. Also, at business meetings many seem surprised when I show up with Helmet and full gear on ;-)
Many thanks for Jyrki for showing me north North and South of San Francisco.
