Today's "What Gets My Goat" - NO POLITICS!

[tommyardin]

Got to work yesterday and nearly dropped the bike (again) as my foot slipped, I assumed that was due to the recently painted, shiny concrete floor, gathered my belongings, both feet sliding around like mad, and trudged up into the office. And there I discovered what was lubricating my boots so efficiently had been a thick layer of canine excrement.
Ever had to clean dogshit out of the soles of TCX boots? Crap squishes into that ultra-fine tread pattern with the aim of staying there forever. Took me half an hour with a bottle of bleach and a bogbrush borrowed from one of the work loos. And then I took the brush and bleach down to the basement carpark and decontaminated the footrests, brake and gear levers... and the surrounding area which looked like Mr Hanky had paid a visit.
So, it's probably been listed here before, but what Gets My Goat is: dog owners who let their mutts shit anywhere. :grumble

I'm with you on that one Fazerider.
Some owners know how to shovel cans full of Pedigree Chum in one end but not know how to deal with the stuff that emulates from the other end.


I have a small grassed area outside my house and for some reason someone, who I have not yet managed to catch, appears to take their dog to that patch every day and allow it to shit then walk or drive off and leave it there, The shit that is, not the dog. :lol  he! he!
But rest assured I will catch them, and will probably end up getting bitten by their dog.  :'(
