Commute just got better

Thread for the rest of us...

New shower finally available! They installed a fenced-in bike cage earlier this year. Wish the shower had been working earlier in the summer, but there were numerous construction delays. All is forgiven.

Very nice! Our shower was built into a closet. The only complaint I have is the cleaning person does not clean it, and the bench is built into the wall but needs to be braced, as it moves if weight is put on it (yikes!). I am also pretty much the only who ever uses it, so I just clean it once a month myself.
