Did I just read 3 hours to clean bike after every ride?

That is a fetish !

I used to know someone who would polish the underneath of his mudguards.

Are you long lost twins ?

I havn't seen him for years - he has probably moved on to polishing the tiles on his house roof or something.

Seriously, the only bike I have ever washed and polished on a regular basis was my G**d W**g and that was only because when I bought it my mates all said it was a crying shame that a mint old bike was going to rust away within a year of my ownership. 2 years later I sold it after riding it more than any other bike I have ever owned and only lost two hundred pounds on the deal.

Perhaps the Autoglym and solvol users club have the last laugh at re sale time after all.
