In the pre motorised days it was normal for an orderly officer to get around camp on a bike-this could include kilt plus sword.

As for when shooting prone, move sporran to side, have saddle under kilt so as not to wreck pleats, and cycle-just keep smiling, and do not try to return salutes.

Possibly better than in a lowland regiment-with skin tight overalls-strapped under dress boots and sword.

In all an argument for there being times when it is best not to wear a kilt.
