More of a rant than anything, but quite appropriate to this thread.
Was riding around Richmond Park this morning and I couldn’t believe the amount of cyclist with no mudguards on their super expensive bike riding their bike like they have taken it off road. More importantly they have that horrible brown patch running up their back side too.
Not to mention getting their spray when getting overtaken too.
Long story short, people in the UK we don’t have the luxury of sunny and dry weather all the time of the year. Be a consider sod and put some mudguards/fenders on your bike to protect your bike and your fellow riders.
Rant over.

My old road club made mudguardless bikes stay at the back on wet club runs.
