mud on his leg

[Biciclista]

So yesterday, with all my nonsense getting my car fixed, DH calls me and says, "where are you? I can just ride over to where you are, i'm getting off work now"
I was about 2.5 miles from his office. Right after I hung up the phone, they were done with my car though, so I called him back.

after a few rings, he answered
(Expletive!)
hello?
(expletive!) (sounds of phone being juggled)
I explained that i was on my way home now that he need not meet me at the mechanic's place. He sounded a little flustered, but i figured he'd dropped his phone and that was why.

About 2 hours later, I noticed that the back of his calf was completely covered in mud (kind of like a chocolate dipped icecream!) and i said, "DH, did you FALL when I called you earlier?" he looked sheepish and said "how did you know?"
lol. He wasn't going to tell me.
we chipped the mud off his leg. A few hours later, as he was getting in bed and thanked me for noticing before bedtime. EWWWW

How could he not notice mud caked on the skin of his leg? I'm with you Mimi, Ewwww! Take that boy outside and hose him down.

And is the bike OK? Does it need a bath too?

Can imagine Raleighdon, cursing and mumbling into the phone during his road fall.
