Road Cycling “It is by riding a bicycle that you learn the contours of a country best, since you have to sweat up the hills and coast down them. Thus you remember them as they actually are, while in a motor car only a high hill impresses you, and you have no such accurate remembrance of country you have driven through as you gain by riding a bicycle.” -- Ernest Hemingway

Removing water from inside frame.

Could be ********.. but couldn't find anything searching..

Rode my bike yesterday in what was some of the worst rain i've ever ridden in (just commuting back from work, not even a true "ride") and today i flip the bike upside down to clean off the cassette and chain and water starts coming out from the seat tube.

I took out the seat post, held it upside down to get everything that would come out out.. there still seems to be some liquid inside the frame though. If i shake the frame it sounds like the water is coming from the chain stays.

Any suggestions?? or does this just kind of evaporate? I ride my aluminum fixed gear (Fuji Track Pro) in the rain all the time and have never had issues, first time taking the Scott out in serious rain and I am surprised.

FWIW: frame is an aluminum Scott Speedster S1
