I bring my bike into my office. I work in a large hospital. I did not want to park it in the outside bicycle racks because of the inconvenience of removing all the bits and pieces. The bike isn't worth very much but the Brooks saddle, the lights, the loud horn, the speedo and the trunk with it's contents add up. Before I started to ride to work, I asked myself, "Who can I ask in this gigantic bureaucracy of 90,000 for permission to bring my bike into my office everyday?" Realizing, there might not be anyone in the bureaucracy with that particular responsibility or authority. So, I decided if it was a problem, I would ask for forgiveness. Well into my second year and nobody has complained. I am very well behaved with the bike. When I leave the road, I am a pedestrian carefully pushing my bike. I give staff and patients a wide berth. Plus my office is on the main floor fairly close to the outside doors.
