Probably because there is so much water down here at the moment that using a hose may lead to flooding..

I recommend that they issue Oxford Stormex Covers to the entire population. Everytime it rains, It collects cr@p loads of water in the bottom of it.

So much for being the dogs bananas, Ride magazine you ****s!

Just don't look at the forecast for next week

I had quite a nice ride in the rain today, that is until the SV decided it wanted to be a 325 single. ( I will get round to buying a fenda extenda one day).

Thankfully I was quite close to my mates house and he let me use his garage to sort it out.

Plus has anyone invented a self cleaning bike yet ?

There I was today at the BMF admiring the view through sheets of rain.I was eating my West Indian jerk pork(lovely) sheltering under a bit of awning when said awning gave up under the weight of water and dumped it's contents down my neck. Drought orders coming next week I hear.
