Take it out for a ride.
Pipes are HOT before you start rolling (spots), the bike gets water spots and streaks like crazy because you can't control the direction of the wind and go through any dust or sand when it's still wet and you might as well not have just washed it.

I don't have one of these yet, but I get tired of ringing out a chamois. I'd probably still use one, but it would be a quick and easy task after blowing the bulk of the water off.

I use my Stihl model BG85C leafblower, it works great on bikes, trucks, jeeps and large dogs. It even has cruise control.
