WAY BEFORE:
No fenders on the everyday bike. Quite often, back of coat or backpack coated in mud. Not unheard of to get some dirt on face, specifically, in mouth. Once, got bits of mud on ivory-color dress while riding to art opening because there was a puddle that wanted to be ridden through. Except for the dress incident, perceived this all as an exercise in building character.
IMMEDIATELY BEFORE: Functional SKS fenders that were plain black and boring. At least they weren't navy blue.
AFTER:
Fenders are always a win. Fenderella, well thats just clutch. Nice work.
ReplyDeleteDiscovering the awesomeness of fenders was a breakthrough for me.
ReplyDeleteThen, I owned a pair of plastic, detachable fenders. Now I'm looking for a nice pair of permanent fenders that fit a trike.
