Ok I get it now. One question though, when you arrive at work after a particularly messy commute (heavy rain/dirty slush/mud etc.) do you have to walk through an office area to get to your shower facilities or can you effectively go straight from the bike to the shower? I too have a shower at work and consider myself lucky but the carpets on the way to the shower facilites here are light in color and mud road grime etc dripping on them would sent the office manager here into a tizzy!

PS I dig the Edgar Winter reference.
