Shift change, leaving the station together, or returning together?

Yes, Lincoln is a major street.

I've seen 2 or 3 officers biking together now and then.; 9/9/11, 12:07 PM

Do they ride around to bars and play 'moonlight sonata?' Do they have an underwear patrol that goes around in alleys and scares the cats and mingles with the peeping toms?; 9/9/11, 12:28 PM

Un-seriously: last call at Dunkin Donuts?; 9/9/11, 3:56 PM
