That mud looks deceiving, it looks dry and hard on top but really sloshy underneath.

Re: Azusa Cyn 9/27
The mud cakes into the radiator and if you let it dry without a thorough cleaning you need to physically remove the radiator and soak it -- a real PITA.
Azusa can be fun splashing through the water in the Spring but I sincerely hate mud.

And all this time, I thought I was the only mud-hater here.
Your lunch looks yummy Saphteemon!
