I have a garden with a tap and hose, along with a selection of brushes and cleaning agents.
The MTB generally gets at minimum its drivetrain cleaned after each ride - though often I give the rest of it a once over too.
Road bike tends to get a clean after wet rides, the drivetrain tends to be baby wiped down and relubed after every couple of rides, though if it has been particularly dry and dusty or wet and mucky it may happen more often.
Fixie skidder gets the least attention and this year i have been rather slack, tending to clean the drivetrain (again with babywipes) once or twice a month, really need to make this more regular.
If anyone out west needs to clean a bike, PM me and see if we can find a convenient time for you to come over.
