For the first time in at least a couple of years, I washed my Uly. Get down on the ground clean the wheels and bottoms of stuff wash. Not the normal hose and go from a standing position.

So now it is raining!

Anybody else have this problem?

Opposite problem.

For a month we tooled around the back roads of Washington, Idaho, Montana, Wyoming, Utah, Nevada and California trying to get the SO's truck as dirty as possible. Every time we got a good coat of mud and dirt on it, it would rain, hail, or both and wash the dirt off. By the time we got home, it was dusty, but the only real mess was on the front of the truck in a multicolored bug gut masterpiece.

Washed my diesel, and my Jeep, on Sunday. My van is clean, and my Daytona is show-ready.

Raining all day today.

Motorcycles are like women, they're more fun to ride when they're a little dirty. - Me

Thanks, Vern- been needing rain and a cool-off for a while now. Was planning to clean the aquarium today, think I'll weedeat now since it's not 95 anymore. I'll take care of the fishies tomorrow.

Edit- well, dang, more T-storms on the radar. Back to plan 1.

We've had huge thunderstorms the last two nights. Last night it caused a power outage. Not long, just enough to reset the clocks and turn my bedroom light on at full bright!! I thought I was being raided!! There's supposed to be more later tonight but morning is SUPPOSED to be beautiful! I'd wash my bike today but don't want to jinx it!

I often wash my car while it's raining.

Last time I washed my Uly, I noticed some missing fasteners. I don't wash it anymore so I don't lose anymore.

I FINALLY washed all of the accumulated dead bugs from a week up in Lake George (Americade) and the Ramapo 500. It's in the garage for now. Next time I take it out will be a week from Thursday when I hit the road for Pittsburgh and the MotoAmerica races.

I washed the Zero too. It rained today, so it stayed nice and clean in the garage. The car has to be used SOMETIME, I guess.
