[RC] Skito insert salt/maintenace/replacement - Ridecamp GuestPlease Reply to: Ray O'Donohue rno2m@xxxxxxxxxxxx or ridecamp@xxxxxxxxxxxxx ========================================== Tom Scott of Skito has good info on Ultra-cell insert maintenance.Here's how I remember it,but his website probably has better info.Salt from sweat is the main thing that makes the foam go bad,and you will pretty much be able to tell by looking at it and feeling it when this has happened. If you will take the trouble to periodically rinse the salt out,they will hold up better.A vinegar- laced water rinse will be best,and afterwards I use the spin cycle of my washing machine to get the water out of the ultra-cell,which is otherwise very very slow to dry.Most women would not think this was a fine idea,but ridecamp gals are not most women,and will not be squemish! ===========================================================There is something really special about getting to ride all day, and all night on your horse. I know that a lot of people like to get finished, and get it over with. Yes, it is a lot of work. But, realize that each ride, especially a 100 is a really special gift and savor it for all it is worth. ~ Karen Chaton ridecamp.net information: http://www.endurance.net/ridecamp/ ===========================================================
