I find that when I have to ride where its damp or rainy, if you stick a length of electrical tape on the underside of the brake arms right above the wheel two wide along with the back of the steering column, when you get home all you have to do is wipe down the bike and peel off the tape so you don't have to floss around to get the gunk out.
