Oh, I love this forum ... you guys make me feel much better.

Yesterday I submerged my bike and me in a puddle. It didn't look like such a big puddle but hindsight tells me that even tracker would find it hard to extract a a mazda 323 in there...

the bummer was ...

the fuel filler cap popped open when I fell, and the fuel came out and the water - red, brown, clay-filled suspension stuff went in...

I learnt some things -
(1) I can pick up my bike, even if I have to take a deep breath before plunging in to find the handle bar
(2) a dakar aint so heavy to push
(3) mud doesn't taste so bad, unless it has fuel in it
(4) petrol attendants are happy to help you turn your bike over to empty it out, fill it a bit (R20), splosh it about, empty it, and fill it again - they're just not happy for you to walk brown footprints in their clean shop
(5) people, passers-by, like to stare at recently-converted-to-brown-people.
(6) mudpacks aren't all they're made out to be

alas no photographs

sad, hey

Brilliant :lol:

And as for the rest of the post I turn green with envy, looks like serious fun.
