Just got leathered up ready for a quick trundle round the French countryside when I noticed a mysterious fluid between the front wheel and the radiator. So what do you do? You dip your fingers in it and rub them together to see if it's oily. No. Then you sniff your fingers to see if there is a pungent smell like petrol, no again. The next thing usually is to just touch your tongue to see if it's got Glycol in it, but I didn't.. thankfully... because then I realised one of the dogs had pissed against my front wheel and missed! BASTARDS!!!

Let's face it, you wouldn't go to a nurse to get good advice on a problem with a Falco - you'd choose an Engineer or a mechanic...

...hate to say this, but they are my dogs. Born in Blighty! Probably having a good laugh at my expense. I can only assume they were trying to counter the local cat's marking practices.

It could also be viewed as a valiant attempt by your true-blue Brit dogs to deter the local froggy moggies from spraying your bike by putting down a marker of their own. Out of deference they avoided the front wheel and pissed in the gap twixt wheel and radiator...?
Nah - they're just crap shots...

Should be able to tell if they're diabetic or not then.
