You cycle through a puddle and on every stroke of the pedal your entire foot is submerged.
Bit damp out.

Lots of people went to bike shops to have bikes repaired.
Oil everything afterwards.
Something the service probably won't pick up is the grease in your pedals. I had to rebuild mine after I spent too much of the summer riding through a ford locally. No grease left in one side and the bearings starting to look a little orange.Kaipaith said:My bike is going in for its six-week service after purchasing this morning. Timing is everything!

Kaipaith said:No, its a fair point worth making. However this was, if anything a different sort of flood... it doesn't come from below, but from "above" - a run off from pig fields flowing across the road onto the fields below.
