If I were not to ride in the rain- then I would not get much riding in. Only thing is Post-Ride treatment of the bike. I ride offroad mainly and the bike will need a wash at the minimum. After washing and cleaning the chain- I spray it with WD40 or similar and leave it to soak in. I release the outers on the Cables and oil the Inners- or wash through the outers with WD40 or similar. Then lubricate the steel parts with once again that WD stuff- or similar. Leave the bike for a couple of hours-or days and wipe clean.

There is no effort in cleaning a bike- just a bit of time and while cleaning I am finding the parts that need adjustment, are just about to fail or need cleaning again.

And I buy that WD40- or similar in 5litre cans- I am a cheapskate.
