YAY! Nothing better than a shiny bicycle!
I just (mostly) cleaned my bike yesterday. It's all clean now. The same cannot be said, however, about the floor of the garage. (I'm still mastering the use of the Park Tool thing...)

Hey, looks like we're all on a cleaning streak! I used a Park Tools brush thing with a hook at the end to get into & between the rear cassette (I guess that's what it's called)- all the rear sprockets/pointy things that the chain goes around on. Wow, I thought I knew what that was actually called....
There was dried on mud below the bottom bracket on the frame and up on the underneath side of the fenders.
It's supposed to be dry and sunny beginning tomorrow, so want to have "Scout" all ready to go. She keeps bugging me for a bubble bath in the tub, but I keep telling her she's too big for the tub!
