After a particularly muddy and sweaty ride the other day, I simply left my helmet, pants and boots out on the porch after spraying the bike off. I was flat out killed from kicking, and picking up my 200cc Wunderpig, and couldn't be bothered with cleaning them. I hit the sack.
Poor pants and boots. There they sat for a days, fully encrusted with Eastern KY's finest creekbed mud. I finally cleaned my boots and goggles, but couldn't bring myself to wash those O'Neal pants. IF ONLY THEY WERE MACHINE WASHABLE! I spent a good 15 minutes on cleaning them last time. There had to be a better way.
There is now. After coming back from riding again, I saw the pants sitting there on the porch as I went inside to take a shower. I had a brainstrom; I throw the pants in the shower with me, and let them soak before I wash them tonight. As I showered, I nudged the pants to get them good and soaked when it hit me. Why not just put them on and clean 'em? I did, and it worked great. I got them twice as clean as the last time, and in only about 4 minutes. And since I was in the shower, there was no mess to clean up afterwards. I AM THE MAN!!!
