Washed my bike for the first time this morning. I'm old-school, still use a net-covered sponge and chamois, and wash by hand (my car too, as its a ragtop).
Bikes gots lotsa nooks and crannies, don't they! Obviously I couldn't reach in everywhere with what I was using; was wondering, do any of you/can you squirt the bike down with a hose? Or will that foul up the wiring? I've also seen in other threads of folks who ride the bike immediately after washing to kind of "blow her out", how necessary is this?
Might take some of the warning labels off this afternoon, they look a bit tacky.
So how do you wash your bike?
