washed the bike...

couldn't find fenwicks so i used what was at hand which was non bio clothes liquid at about 40ml in 250ml water in a spray bottle.. bloody hell its superb, the files and grime came right off with no scrubbing. spray bike, wipe down with cloth and rinse.

afterwords i had a good think about what i had just done as regards to if i could have cased damage. well if you think about it clothes liquid is safe to use on clothes in a washing machine, the washing machine has the same parts a bike has like rubber, plastic, metal and paint.
