I got a great mtb @ the start of the year but only rode it about 8 times this year because I was training for 2 IM's. I went on a 6 hour ride this past weekend on the mtb, and I'm now hooked. I plan on riding it once or twice a week for the next several months in preparation for a couple of xterras next year.
My question is this: What do you do for cleaning? I usually keep my road bikes very clean, but it just doesn't seem possible w/ the mtb. After every ride, there's just crud everywhere. What do you experienced off-roaders do for cleaning? Do you have to clean your drivetrain after every ride?
