Chaps? You left yourself open for a lot of comments with that accessory in Florida. Watch your sealed bearings with that power washer. I actually have spoke to someone that had a front wheel bearing sieze.... It was a bad day for him.

Better explain further on the Muktuk! Some folks may think that you are hitting the Patron a little too hard. Muktuk is from the Whales...
