On a recent ride that took some of us past the fire station near Lake
Sherwood, we were told by one of the fireman that cyclist are once again
using the back of the fire station as a toilet. Sadly, this kind of
behavior by people that are likely not members of this club, make us all
look bad. They wanted us to remind everyone that all are welcome to use
the toilet in the station.
