Both bikes i have owned have a spider living on them. No matter how much I try and get them off they either come back or hide really well. Its annoying to find a spider web every morning. I was wondering if anyone else has this problem and how to remedy it.

bug spray.
cover the bike and open a bug bomb, let it sit under the cover for a few seconds and then seal the cover for a couple hours.

Some people have serious problems, other people have less serious problems.
Consider yourself lucky to be in the latter grouping.

I don't bother with spiders. Once I'm on the street, the spiders are gone if they were someplace on my bike. Spiders just skitter away when getting the bike out. And, when walking through a web, sure I wonder whether the spider is gonna crawl down my neck, but that's not gonna happen, never has.

DAMN Skinny's (air) box is bugged

oh i have used a high pressure water jet. Thats why I think that a new one moves in. Maybe I should just mix some bug killer in with the paint and re paint it!
