Snow!

ladies and gents, do not forget to wash your bikes and overshoes, w/p trousers and etc. with warm water before going to bed as it will diminish the impact of the salt on steel, alloy, paintwork, anodising, gore tex, neoprene and etc.....!!!! :{)

No no no! COLD water. Warm water will dissolve the salt and make it harder to get out of the harder to reach places. (Thanks Owen)
