I couldn't help but break out the old t-shirt rags, toothbrush (for the chainrings and derailleurs) and Meguiar's Quik Detailer to get the bike nice and clean again. I finished it off with a fresh application of FinishLine wax on the chain. I cleaned the rear cluster out before I put the patched tube back on the wheel. She ran nice and smooth this morning!Noahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15271155305943176738noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37888568.post-11528965269349337882007-03-27T07:01:00.000-05:002007-03-27T07:01:00.000-05:00I got rained on pretty good last night.
