Steve may be right, but the other possibility is tar and gravel, especially if you have ridden through some road construction sites. Mineral spirits will work, of course, but I have found an old stand bye, Bon Ami, which is a mix of limestone, feldspar, coconut, corn, soda ash, and baking soda, to be a very effective and safe cleaning agent for grease and oil.
