U dont need to pressure wash it. Remove the chain and clean with a mild soap and brush (old tooth brush works great) then soak it in oil (engine oil is good. New or used doesent matter, but atf is better) over night.

It's monsoon season and I live at the end of a half mile dirt road. I barely made it home before the low points in the roads flooded, but not before my bike got all muddy and I was soaked. My question is: what do i do for the chain in circumstances like this? Surely dirt and grit are now in the chain. One person suggested i should pressure wash everything off the chain and re-lube. I guess i can do that if i need to, though will have to drive the 12 miles or so into town to do it.. Any other suggestions?
