Mud is the soft, sticky matter resulting from the mixing of earth and water.

Mud is an inevitable enemy in off-road cycling, and while it may seem easy to clean, if not handled correctly, can lead to an unsightly and permanent stain. By following these simple steps, you’ll not only be able to tackle the most formidable mud stain with ease, but you’ll also get drunk.

Step 1: If the stain is wet mud (shown above), allow the mud to dry completely. DO NOT attempt to wipe away mud that is wet or damp as this will spread the stain and possibly grind it into the fabric fibers.

Step 2: When the mud is dry, gently scrape off the excess with the plastic knife or spoon, being careful not to grind the dirt into the fabric.

Step 3: Gently brush at the dirt/dried mud with small brush or toothbrush.

Step 4: Take a shot of whiskey.

Step 5: Put a few drops of liquid dish soap onto the stain, and rub it into the stain with your thumb and forefinger.

Step 6: Add a drop or two of water to the detergent/stain spot and briskly rub with brush or toothbrush on BOTH sides of the fabric, using circular motions.

Step 7: Take a shot of whiskey.

Step 8: You may need to repeat these steps several times before the stain is completely gone.

…and there you have it.
