Ah, that's better!

Yesterdays bike ride was great in the morning, lovely weather and even the diversion (A46 was closed at Beckford) was ok. Well signed and passed through some lovely villages that I'd never seen before.
While at Wellesbourne we had heavy rain for about half an hour, but it stopped with a bit of sun now and then.
That really made a mess of the bike. The spray was worse than the actual rain.
So, what's that got to do with today's blip? It was imperative that the bike was washed down, dried and put away beautifully clean, so that's what happened. If you leave that crusty, salty, road muck on chrome for long it starts to eat into it, and even quicker on 'white metal' parts.
Should have taken a 'before' shot.
