I'm really old fashioned in that I use buckets and terry towel rags; one bucket warm water with Dawn dish detegent, one bucket cool clear rinse water, a soapy towel and a rinse towel and followed by a dry towel to wipe down. The idea of taking a hose to my bike makes me shudder but maybe I'm a little (okay, more than a little) wierd that way.

A positive attitude may not solve all your problems, but it will annoy enough people to make it worth the effort. Herm Albright (1876 - 1944)
