Rode to work today out the back of Castleford, through Methley heading towards Leeds. If anyone knows that road they know theres a railway bridge under which it floods from time to time. Yesterday, I rode through it on the way to and from work fine, a little water, no concern.
This morning, I ride through, and 100 yds down the road I get a fleeting sniff of a fragrance I can't quite put my finger on. I pull up at work and just as I'm hopping off the bike I notice my pant leg is dirty at the bottom. Then, I see my boot has white flecks on it. It dawns on me, it wasn't just a little excess rainwater or a burst main. Ffffffuuu...! Taking the long way home tonight Embarassed

Anyone had such shame brought upon them?

I know the road well. Everybody crawls under that bridge for no apparent reason.

Did you ride through what I think you're saying you rode through? WHERE DID IT ALL COME FROM?!

Once came back to the car, parked in the street, daytime, and there was a used tampon stuck to the outside of the tyre. Shocked Puke

Railway bridge above you. Trains flush out on to the lines.

Fairly sure that's not what happened. Which I'm pleased about. That would be absolute hell.

Map, I don't even...
