As one of the very few people who commute by bike in Turkey my colleagues generally are very impressed and like what I am doing. Even tho there are no bike parks or racks I am allowed to put my bike in car park under the building. There is a gym and showers too. So I generally come about an hour early do my daily exercise take my shower and start a fresh day.
However this is the story of the last 3 months.
On my former work place even tho I was again allowed to put my bike in a closed room in the car park there were no showers. I had to go to work by subway to not to sweat and returned back home riding. Later on tho I got a shower built in one of the basement floors. Everyone there also admired how I commute by bike in this maybe the least bike friendly city (here see for yourself: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Qizi3JYOvxs) There were people who I didn't know but who knows me as "the cyclist guy"
