Washed the bike! - SV650.org

A58 was like a lake today, Armley about 8" deep, and just after hellfire crossroad was at least a foot deep.

Any other places where you should be travelling on a jetski rather than a bike?

Pleased to report my new drive kerbs no longer allow water off the road to flood my drive. Was deep puddles around here to.

Due to a massively leaky roof we had a mini niagra falls down a flight of steps in the factory. Glad it had mainly stopped before going home.

Huge puddles all over Accrington too. Unfortunately our bike shelter decided to try to blow away, and is now broken. So we have wet bikes

I had a moment of panic when I thought that the "Org Dirty Bike Brigade" might have to vote in a new leader, but it seems we are safe

I'm almost at 3 years unwashed (the bike that is, not me).
