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.
On a dry(er) day, I'll just wheel mine through the front door and park it in my cube.
On a soggy day, I head for the side door and wheel it down the hallway to the lockers. Most of the hallway has carpets that are sent for cleaning once a week, and the little bit of water in the locker room is OK. I put a bath sheet folded in half under my ride to keep from puddling up the floor where I park.
