Doesn't take many miles. Just a lot of water in the air and on the roads. Took mine out today, beautiful sun, darn cold. Had to cruise around and check out all the flood damage around Hood Canal.
You're telling me. I wash my bike once a year probably. No point when as soon as you go two blocks and you have mud and dirt all over it again. The rusting is what bothers me. Oh well....I don't really see moving out of the PNW anytime soon
Yeah, I feel ya. After 10 years in Portland you should have seen my Ironhead. I made the move to the high desert, I have gotten more clear riding days, but the snow is killing me. At least the temp is better in the rain. Keep the rubber side down.
