Obviously using a pressure washer is bad to clean a bike.

Daily riding is a good habit. Do it regularly. But I suggest not ride such this long distance.

Though you’re 5’4" the 15" to 18" frame should be comfortable for ride. I am also 5’4", and I use a 18" bike. It is comfortable for me to ride.

It is good for you that you want training for Mountain Bike. But I recommended some [i:3ccdf3sb]Technique[/i:3ccdf3sb] that will help you for your future.

Balance – Balance is crucial in mountain biking, not just left-right balance, but front to back balance.
Climbing – Most riders will do at least some of their hardest climbs out of the saddle. It is necessary to rock the bike gently with each pedal stroke in order to keep the bike in a straight line.
Descending – Stay back on the bike.
Cornering – Learn the technique of "counter steering". Brake before corners, not in them. Look where you want to go, not at what you don’t want to hit. Bikes have a way of going wherever you look.
Braking – Most of your braking force is in the front brake. Use both brakes simultaneously, and brake before corners, not in them.
Shifting – You should always pick a gear that allows you to "spin" your pedals at between 60 and 90 rpm. (note: racers may spin more). Try counting your revolutions for 10 seconds, then multiply by 6, or get a cyclometer with a cadence (RPM) function.

I had this issue on one of my bikes and resolved it by pushing the pistons out some, cleaning them with iso alcohol and qtips before pushing them back in. There was enough dirt around the pistons to keep them from being able to fully retract. A mechanic at the bikeshop had the same issue while I was there and opened up one of the bleed screws to release some of the fluid, which served the same purpose but I didn’t want to remove any fluid from my system.

On a barely related note, I’m growing to detest Avid’s brakes simply because of the bleeding hassles. I just came up from the basement where I finished bleeding an Avid 5 for the fourth time, trying to get the squish out of it. Each bleed continues to improve the feel a slight bit and gets a bit more air out. Contacting Avid, I was told that it was common to have to bleed the system multiple times.

Yes..You are right schwim. I had faced also same problem and by applying above method solved easily.

Thank you
