I would rather bring an antibacterial wipe for the seat, than rely on a flimsy piece of tissue to protect your arse from the unimaginable and unfortunately, the imaginable! heheheheee

The sheets are soap, then a fabric softener, then they go into the dryer and are an antistatic sheet!!! Modern technology, eh?
I'm sure they TSs make some money on showers. But their costs are more than pennies. Just heating the water used per shower is expensive, they pay someone to clean the shower, they (most) provide three towels and those need to be washed each time so there is the cost of running the washing machine, the dryer and the labor. then there is upkeep on the showers aside from standard cleaning.

ps Don't read any of the info in this reply that you don't want... hehehehee -
You belive they wash them EVERY TIME? When I was out there on the road I took my own towels and used the T/S towel as a floor mat! Nothing more gross than stepping out of the shower and seeing a "short and curly" on the "clean" towel
To the OP , yes your trainer will use his card and get a team shower, that dosn't mean you share the shower (sorry Redd) it's just a term that's used for 2 showers for 2 drivers. You don't have to drive team to get the team shower , heck my wife goes with me and we'd each get a shower and there's is NO WAY I'D SLEEP WHILE SHE DROVE! -
