Last week I was very wet in the bottom department. This is what happened: my bike saddle was soaking up all the rain and when I sat on it, it all squelched out, pushing much moisture into my derriere. Not in itself too tragic but then I lost my mobile and then, my exhaust fell off. I took the car to a very dirty, troll-like man in a garage who wrenched the loose pipe clean off and flung it across the garage floor with a smirk. He tells me my middle end needs replacing owing to there being lots of rust but it’s ok to drive if I don’t mind sounding like a tractor. Another smirk. At this point another dirty troll-like man joins us. He has a broken middle finger which is in a sling, poking audaciously in my direction. I feel like I’m about to be shafted so I jump into my tractor and head off into the rain. Later on, I conduct a very aggressive dental health session involving some rapid flossing and a high speed electric toothbrush. The next morning, I wake to discover one side of my face is twice the size of the other and my gum is throbbing. Nasty!

I have an anti-wet bottom tip for you Anna. Keep a pastic bag under your saddle and place this over your saddle as and when required. Your bottom will remain nice and dry. But watch out for colour transfer from certain inferior quality bags especially if you’re in white.
