Went out for a blast yesterday and was reminded of why i intended on minimal use through the winter (it is still winter by the way as i found out).
Had a close encounter with a rock about the size of a clenched fist which was greater in size than my ground clearance and skelped the chin spoiler. Fortunately it wasn't thrown up underneath and there weren't any of the painful metallic noises i was expecting.
And this was after i was looking with interest at the big shiney orange snow plough on the oncoming vehicle until i realised it was a gritter and was sandblasted at 70mph. Spent a further mile swearing and deciding the medieval punishments i'd administer should i ever meet the driver. Need to wash car to look for any damage.
Then it rained and rained making a very sprayable saline solution on the road for me to throw onto my underside and inner arches.
