Frazz by Jef Mallett for April 04, 2015

THIS is the reason the REAR Fender was invented.

(Been there, done that.)

Also, I extended it amost down to the Blacktop to keep from “Spraying” fellow Riders. People don’t like to follow you close enough to talk if it means gettin a cold, gritty shower.

Also, I extended the FRONT Fender to keep MYSELF from getting sprayed too. Basicly I Doubled-up the Fenders in the interest of Dryness, it worked pretty well too.

Call me a wimp, but I don’t ride when it’s wet.

I won’t ride when it’s wet. At least, not on purpose. (20% chance of rain my ass). I’ve also learned the hard way just how long it takes trails to dry out. Nothing like three hours of grit splattered “fun” followed by a hour or so of cleaning your bike.

I’ve found some excellent fenders for both my winter/snow bike and my road bike. As Leo said they extend almost all the way down to the road surface but the only thing that gets wet/dirty now is my toes.

Fenders=weight, Frazz,races[time trial],so weight is a no,no. :) Peace.

Lightweight removable fenders let me ride anytime it’s not actually raining, they come off for racing (if I ever did), and if someone 40 years younger passes me, he or she gets zero points because I have fenders.

Is this strip just about exercise anymore? It seems like that’s all it talks about (rarely punched-up with the precocious witticisms of 4th graders who are for some reason all smarter than the adults around them [save Frazz, of course])

“I am SO wet and cold.” … “Yet what you foolish mortals call ‘exercise’ are activities I just LOVE to do.” Doesn’t Frazz LOOK like he’s having fun? Who is he fooling? What is this boneheaded obsession with exercising, and why can’t he just admit it, instead of pretending it’s ALL about the love? Much more fun to be freezing and mud-covered than, say, sitting in front of the TV…Dude probably doesn’t even own a television set (heaven forbid you should ever be inside, other than to eat or sleep!)
