Have you met me? Once I get on track all sense goes out the window. I will not be outdone by faster bikes and will happily get my kneedown in the wet and do lots of other crazy yet very unpredictable acts of stupiditiy. Let me put it another way, I like my bike shiny. Knowing me I'll do something stupid and make it not so shiny which will mean I have to sell it.
