Default Oh FFS, raining, again

Thats now 6 weeks in a row. Every single week this year i've washed my bike, the dirt and grit and salt is rinsed off during the week, then she gets a good wash down at the weekend.

6 weeks in a row now its been washed, and 6 weeks in a f-ing row its either rained or snowed on the monday, thus leaving cleaned bike a total state again by the time i get to work.

Im seriously getting fecked off now....


Its even making me think of getting a car, thats how p1ssed off I am about it.

That is very annoying! I cleaned my bike before I put it away last November - pulled it out to go to the EAR Christmas meal and it was in the worst state I have ever seen it when I returned - very demoralising

Get a car

Its just the fact its every bloody week, monday morning, before i've even got on it, its raining or snowing. It could at least give me a few days dry weather. Least let me have a clean bike for one day. But no.

RE snow, I ride in snow. It makes riding interesting. More fun that in the rain. Im hardcore.

Just fedup of having a dirty bike that needs cleaning every bloody week
