Yes, but a lot of people don't have clean bikes for the pride as well.

A well worked bike is a mark of pride among some circles and a "too" clean bike with a bright and shiny rider is an easy way to not get taken seriously by a lot of well versed riders. I don't expect many to understand, but there is a reason for that.

Clean does not mean it's well maintained either. Let's not bring that into this debate.
