Am I taking this hobby too seriously?

[Fordulike]

After a particularly muddy ride today, I gave the bike a good washdown.
As I didn't want to store it in the shed wet, I brought it into the kitchen, and using the wife's hairdryer, proceeded to spend 15 mins drying it off.

The wife wasn't too impressed and looked at me as if I had gone mad

I was waving the hair dryer about like I was Vidal Sassoon, so I've come to the conclusion that I may be taking this hobby a bit too seriously

Drying it off after riding could dry the road dirt onto the bike. Perhaps you should have shampooed it before using the hair dryer, assuming your wife wouldn't mind the bike stood up in the bath.

Nexxus shampoo sounds ideally suited for use on a bike.

You think that's bad, I received some of this as a Xmas a present.

Fordulike, get your self an air compressor, air line and air gun.

The job then only takes seconds.

This dryer may be a bit over the top for an E-bike

My question is: "What is a hobby?"

It's a small bird of prey classified as a falcon and loosely related to the peregrine falcon.

Especially if you compared the cost to that of a space heater.

Fordulike, I wouldn't advise getting one on the these anywhere near to a Haibike, as you would melt the cable ties that hold the suspension together, but it would probably work on any other brand* http://www.screwfix.com/p/titan-ttb284htg-2000w-heat-gun-230v/73867

Isn't that a small person with large hairy feet originally found in the Shires

Ooooooh, Soundwave's gonna be sooooo mad

I just bought a Titan wet and dry vacuum cleaner from Screwfix the other day. Not bad for 35 quid.
