I meant to wash the bike today. I meant to ride it as well, but the mercury climbed up over 30 and there have been strong winds all day, which would have produced a rather hot and sweaty experience. Plus I got a bit fried yesterday, being out for an hour longer than expected with no sun screen, so I didn't think my skin needed any more tanning than it already has.
The bike has not been washed in months. It is encrusted with grime - at least a few thousand kilometres of sand, grit, road base, oil and other horrible unmentionables. Probably includes rat guts - I saw a very flat and exploded rat on the road the other day.
Well, it was not to be. It will have to survive another week without a bath.
