Maybe if the driver was caring a patch kit and mini pump he wouldn't have to SAG it in.
As found at Cummings Skyway & San Pablo Ave today.

Talk about a celebrity filled weekend. As I was busy finding Pokémons on the trail I run into @DiabloScott
And thank you Scott for the bridge!

The dream of the 90's is alive in Portland.
In Portland, you don't have to give up clowning.

Sorry about the crummy picture, S-Work Bike & Old Flip Phone.
(A cyclist has to have priorities)
I have been thinking about washing my bike in one of the stalls at the So Quik Car Wash for a while.
It is only a mile from my place.
Today was the day, I pumped in a few quarters, and presto!
I didn't skimp, even went all in on an a coat of clear sealant after the rinse.
A gorgeous showroom shine, making a 6 month old bike, with over 3,700 miles, look brand new.
A bit obsessive but, it was fun.

Pholuvr is right about the bearings, though. A pressure washer is probably not a good thing for hubs, bottom brackets or headsets.

It puts out a nice fan shaped mist for rinsing.
I was careful around hubs, bottom bracket, and headset.
My CF frame was fine, it is the Crabon Fiber ones that heat up and explode.
