3 hours hard work in the Lancashire countryside.
some top tips from the ride:

dont try to remove the big malteaser sized sticky bobs whilst still riding with your mouth.

dont drag your front brakes on a steep/clay/wet berm and expect to look cool.

dont accidentally shut a gate on a walkers dog without being ready for abuse.

    it does, and still the same one despite the initial abuse. but in this level of filth there aint alot you can do .

    the front one works really really well tho. not pretty but well worth doing for winter.

    Is that a sexual reference?

    Sounds like a sexual preference :wink:

    Looks from the picture that the crudflinger (if you are refering to the strip behind the rear shock) is working great, though the angle is difficult to tell.

    Really looking forward to properly testing my Fender Bender to see if the fork santions stay clean :D

    might combine a crudcatcher+race guard+neoguard+fenderbender for winter.

    i'll be able to go out in all white and come back the same colour.

    Looking at the splatter formation and using my excellent forensic ability, I have surmised thusly:

    That's not mud. You were talking to a lady (with a nightly persuasion) whilst stood over the bar of your bike. Leaning slightly to the right, to provide good nad clearance. During said time, you made the rest of the world suffer with a bout of extreme explosive diarrhea.

    Yes, I had to look up the spelling.

    Then I looked it up. It seems it's 'Diaree' in Dutch. Isn't that much easier? My favourite in German though - Durchfall. I was told mid-nineties that was literally 'through-fall' which is good. According to google translator, it's 'by-fall' which isn't as good. Lebensmittelvergiftung is a great word. Also, explains why so many Germans die of food poisoning. Nobody can say it. That leads me onto 'Despicable me' - that looks amusing. I can't ever go see it here though, because they're renamed it Verschrikkilijke ikke and I don't have enough spit in me to pronounce it.

    No, I don't want offers of spit, thanks.

    I'm bored.

    The would be a great programme.
    Although, it'd always end up being the lime that did it.

    Thinking about it, didn't Scooby Doo always have the same guy who did!

    "It was you! Old man Limeface!"

    "If it wasn't for you pesky cruddites <shakes fist>"

    Queue CSI: Crudcatcher theme tume. I suspect it'll be 'I love horses' but credited as something cool.

    i've only ever watches casualty once I think, but that one they tried to mix it up. I can't remember, but it was along the lines of:

    Two teenagers hanging around. One climbs up a building and tries to walk across a slippery bar over a spiky railing... Then a loose electric cable sparks around, nearly flicking at the metal he's stood on... Then an escaped lion from a nearby zoo prowls up to where he's walking to...

    Then a cricket ball hits his mate on the ground in the face.
