I use Johnsons baby shampoo. Twice a year, or more if needed, I remove the lining and hand wash with the shampoo, taking great care not to deform the liner, rinse it with clean water (which is very easy because it's baby shampoo) and air dry it over night. Cheap as chips.

Joeman. its true, kinda. It didn't exist until 100 years ago

Hi Mike, Door to door it usually takes 4 days, only because of the ferries. The ferry from the UK is an overnighter and the ferry from Germany to Finland takes 27 hours.

I will be riding from South Wales to Harwich. Hook of Holland to Travemunde in Germany and from Helsinki to Jyvaskyla in Central Finland in September 2018. If anyone else is interested in coming along let me know.
