    If you don't use soap and water aren't you just rubbing the dirt into it as you wipe it off? I have ridden through rain and had dirt stuck to it and there is no way I would take a rag to it without lots of water first. And even dry roads can make it dirty.

    So, 53Driver, I need to come to Pa to get my bike washed by this lovely Irish lass. Tell me where! Good enough reason for a trip.

    She, and her friend Erika, work near Orlando at the "Bikini Car Wash" and they go to Daytona for Biketoberfest and Bike Week and wash bikes all week.
    The queue can get quite long....couple hours deep.
