How often do you do this?

Post by Black Bandit »

How often do you take your PCX out for a countryside thrashing? Here are some photos from 17th December 2012. Fun ride. Lotsa laughs and dirt!

GN2 seldom washes his bike though. :lol:

I use my dirt bike for that kind of riding, my PCX generally stays on the road. I've had it on gravel roads and on the beach too though. :)

I usually give her a wash once a week, but with the shitty weather we been having here in Lovely Thailand lately, plus the roads I have to take sometimes may be a little muddy time to time, there is no point in washing her often now. Plus it adds to the "authentic" off-road look ;-)

Its raining cats and dogs here today and it's been a shitty start to the day too. Looks like a good opportunity to do some off-road rain riding.
