I told you that you needed an extension flap on that front mudguard! 
PS Oops - I see from the 2nd photo that you've already put one on! Okay, er, perhaps you need a bigger one!

Read on Colin, or look in the thread you like to pop into now and then for more infoI told you that you needed an extension flap on that front mudguard!
What a great idea, where did you get that one from?
As for muddy, I think I can match that too...
Great fun getting them in that state, isn't it.

Time to update this thread with a few pics, changed quite a bit since I got it.
Added DIY flaps to both guards for extra coverage.
Fitted Topeak 'babysitter' disc specific rack.
Added new front main light (Moon 500)
Swapped the dodgy OE tyres for some Marathon Supreme (35's)
QR skewers were changed under warranty for some beefier Deore ones, after problems with the front wheel moving under heavy braking.
Spy mirror.
And last but not least a Cycle Chat sticker
Done over 1300 miles since I got it and am still really enjoying the ride.
Amazingly it's still looking fairly clean and tidy too

Hope 1s, I think.
Bike light shots are useless on their own. Comparing different lights with fixed camera settings and a controlled environment is the only time that they are useful, unfortunately, as most of them bring more answers than questions. IMO.
