I'm thinking about trying the simple green too. That sounds too easy thoughj. No scrubbing with a mit?

I like using my leaf blower to dry the bike. Got a wash and wax to 1 hr...in fact I just finished a few minutes ago!

I've got a brushless, non-touch car wash near the house. I know the guys pretty well and when I need the bike cleaned I just put on my rain gear and ride through real slow

I started using the Mr. Clean system for the bike and it works great! One thing about it is your not using a bucket of dirty water and having to change the water if its to dirty, plus the final rinse is with filtered water. After the final rinse you don't have to dry unless you want to, the filtered rinse drys spot free. Sometimes I still use my leaf blower to speed things up.

How about drinking a case of Rolling Rock beer and wetting the bike down. I think that will remove the worst of the road and bug grime.
