How come it always takes me an hour??

Whether it's a little bit of dirt or a lot, in between the parts of the brake calipers, on the derailleur springs, between the rear cogs, etc., it's still a PITA trying to get it out of there...

Friend of mine says he removes the cassette every time for cleaning! I thought that lockring was only good for one use? That teeny little crush washer is DEFINITELY a single use item and I don't know where the heck you'd get a replacement, it's hard enough finding the big crush washers for oil drain plugs on the motorized vehicles!
