Bike wash

The weather here had started to get wet. Almost on a daily basis. Downpour for many short pockets of time throughout the day. I've never realised the inconvenience of raincoats, until now. Everytime the rain starts, bikes pull over and don the coats.

Not the best of designs, but I've noticed that they make two-headed raincoat, for the rider and pillion. Which means, if the pillion falls off, the rider goes along. Or at least, the rider's head.

A Sunday morning bike wash facility. All you need is to bring the bike here, empty the seat hold, and take a bench provided by the side of the shop. And then you wait. Usually, peak traffic meant a 30 minutes wait. Low traffic meant 10 minutes. And the cleaning's good. A good rub, a good scrub. Even got the blow dry treatment (buggers blew away the water droplets, instead of wiping it dry). All these for VND10,000.
