That's such a luxury that I didn't even think of it! I mean, I share a bathroom with between 20-50 other people (2 stalls, one urinal), and most other offices dont have a kitchenette, so coffee and food remnants go into the bathroom sink. It's actually really gross.

I would definitely be willing to sacrifice a shower for a proper bike/clothing storage space though, considering that I don't work up too mean of a sweat on my ride with proper layering/venting. But you're right, a shower/locker space is quite crucial to the ideal cycle-commuting situation.

@Jim if you don't mind my asking, what kind of work do you do in Kendall? Im curious if other industries have different attitudes towards biking. I was more surprised that a healthcare company was not an advocate for workplace wellness.
