Modern workplaces no longer have provision for drying wet clothes, an inevitability of cycling in our climate. When I started working in the 1960s the place had a room where wet clothes could be hung up to dry. A move to brand new premises a couple of years later meant an end of that facility and cycling to work. I then incurred bus fares.
