Thanks for this tid bit. It seems to be the best way for me to consider washing clothes. The bag would pack down pretty small and I happen to have a stuff sack that would work. Now why couldn't I think of that. Fran, Be who you are and say what you feel........ Because those that matter dont mind..... And those that mind don't matter.

Darn.> Mark and Phreds, For washing clothes while on tour without a sink, just put your clothes in plastic bag ( I use a silnylon stuff sack) add a little bio-friendly soap nd enough water, then smush (kneed) it up real good. Pour out the water, in spot 200' min. away from any creek or river, wring out the excess water, hen do the same with just water sans the soap a couple of times. hen your'e done washing and rinsing, take each piece of clothing and oll it up in your towel and wring it out again to aid in the drying rocess. est, arl in San Diego (preparing for the Tour De Palm Spings this Sat). ______________________________________________ ouring mailing list [email protected] rowse and search the archives: http://search.bikelist.org nsubscribe or list settings: ttp://www.phred.org/mailman/options/touring
