Here's what you need to properly clean your bike:
1. A garden hose with a gentle sprinkler head attached.
2. Several micro-fiber cloths
3. A 5 gallon bucket
4. Between 2 and 4 ounces of alcohol
Park your bike in a shady spot.
Position the sprinkler to cascade water over your bike
Mix the alcohol with ice
Overturn the 5 gallon bucket to use as a footstool for your lawn chair
Consume the alcohol/ice mixture
Turn off sprinkler
Use towel to a) wipe sweat from forehead (if seated in the sun) or b) (strictly optional) dry bike.
Make sure this process takes at least an hour, although the sprinkler only needs to be on for a few minutes, so that spouse/significant other is impressed with your work ethic and attention to detail.
