PING Ian & Fossy..

[ianrauk]

For last month's forum ride, I actually gave my bike a quick wipe down on the train down to Stevenage as I knew that Ian was going to be attending.

I'm liking your style Stan

If you are going to do a job, do it properly. Coloured tyres are a bugger. Can't be doing with grey streaks on my tyres from the brake crap from wet rides !

Indeed...and this is where we introduce BabyWipes. They are great for cleaning tyre walls. They make any logos come up nice and clean

Or Mr Sheen (tyre walls only like, not tread).

Wanda makes a note to add babywipes to toolkit, especially for the FNRttCs.

 

[fossyant]

Ohh look

 

[wanda2010]

@ Fossyant - Don't you have something better to do? I'm sad enough to go look for them when I next go to the shops .

I'm sorry Potsy. I found some at home and gave the bike a quick once-over

I need help

You scrub tyres? What's wrong with you man! Life is too short....

Completely slick tires (like the Ultremos on my Dawes) are dead easy to keep clean, about 30 seconds to a minute per tire if on a stand with a bucket of soapy water. Tires with any sort of tread (like the Rubinos on my Peugeot), on the other hand, take far too much effort!

I watched the OC cleaners. Not inspired to blitz my flat but am about to go look at the bike. Start small, I say

That was scary. Watched it. I am not that bad....
