Guys, it's OK for you lot living in civilisation. What about we poor b*ggers in the colonies?
I live half way up a farm track and if I take mine out after I've washed it then this just means I have to wash it again!
On a serious note though, Frank, I would stop throwing the water over it. One trick which has worked for me is to use a small domestic 'blow' ie fan, heater- no more than 1 KW or so and just let the air direct on the wheel for a couple of minutes. It's a bit of a fiddle but cheap and cheerful and it works
Regards
