I voted yes, but I don't. Not really. Unless it rains.0

I voted no, I tend to do it in thirds. That way it doesn't build up as much and is easier to deal with. After all, everyone knows '5 minutes in the saddle is 5 years worth of wear to your drivetrain'. If only the government didn't use acidic road dust...0

Does pouring water over your head when stopped at the lights count?
I do....Food Chain number = 4
A true scalp is not only overtaking someone but leaving them stopped at a set of lights. As you, who have clearly beaten the lights, pummels nothing but the open air ahead. ~ 'DondaddyD'. Player of the Unspoken Game0 -

Lies. You pay some homeless guy to pour some over you like a crazed fan pouring water over his favourite rider in the TdF. Admit it!0

No, but that would be so incredibly awesome.
I'm going tramp hunting tonight , pay him a quid to wait at the lights ahead while sprint there, scalping everything in my wake and then have him pour water over my head while everyone looks onwards at my awesomeness!Food Chain number = 4

Halfway on my route goes right between some large storage tanks so I can go for a quick dip (to the people of Bristol: sorry if your drinking water tastes a bit salty). There are also sheep grazing there, so for us west country types, its a whole leisure centre.
No stop required tonight though, given how its persisting down here at the moment :roll:Specialized Allez

How much will it cost for a t-shirt that has "DonDaddyD Got More Scalps Than An Apache!" printed on?0

I only wash if it's raining, but I do get some odd looks when I'm fully soaped up at the lightspain is temporary, the glory of beating your mates to the top of the hill lasts forever.....................

Doesn't everyone? :shock:
Well, since carrying excessive amounts of stuff would completely nullify the magnificent effects of my beautiful road bike, I restrict myself to sticking some hair and body wash in my jersey pocket so I can lather up if it starts to rain.0 -

Save your money, while my many adventures are well documented in the SCR thread and though I hold complete and utter dominance over Wimbledon, Tooting, Balham, Clapham and Coldharbour Lane. Even though I may rule my commute with an iron fist I am neither the fastest or strongest cyclist in team SCR.
I'm happy to be a lead man out or one of the dudes that protect the big guns like ITB, Jash, LiT, Linsen, Jon, Rich, CJCP and Greg66 (though he'll need to retire soon).
My advice wait for the jersey to come out.Food Chain number = 4

I have a water pump from a caravan driven from a dynamo plumbed into my Camel pack with a chrome shower head fitted to repositioned tribars and controlled with a couple of thermistors so that when body temp exceeds a preset threshold - splosh. The contents of the camel pack are dumped over my semi-bald head. I stop to take on water at various points en route.0
