leaf blower.

in addition to drying my bikes- i can, get this- BLOW LEAVES with it! (BRILLIANT!)

the m/c specific dryers dont do much else.

 

What he said.

 

Have a small compresser and use that....my leaf blower sucks[:@]

How often do I wash my bike??? Depends on the riding I do....

- Went to the beach last weekend lots of mist so lots of salt and it gets a wash...

- Long ride...depends on what she looks like and what I went through.

- Ride just around town...maybe once a month, if its dirty or I just wipe it down.

 

I use my shop-vac in reverse. And I can use the attatchments to get different spots. And the hose is lightweight.

Just another idea.

 

I got an Air Force Blaster for father's day, and it works great. Blows hot, filtered air and drys the bike very well, especially in those hard to reach places.

Bill

 

I didn't think about the beach and salt...I'd love to have that problem!..Momma loves the beach

 

I currently use a leaf blower that the FD I work for owns (b/c it's free). I thought I was the only one using accelerated air to dry my bike, guess I was wrong, but so many people who ride look at me like I'm silly when I tell them I use a leaf blower to dry my bike?! I have thought about getting one of those "cycle dryers" to keep at home, and from reading what people have posted here I guess I will now...thanks for starting the thread.

 

I've been using my leaf blower since the first time I washed my bike. It works well and I already had it.

 

Leaf Blower here......

 

I have one of these and would recommend it to anyone who washes a bike on a regular basis. I wash two bikes and it really saves alot of time.
