Cleaning Catrike/Catbike Seat Cushions

Do you clean your seat cushion periodically?  If so, how often, and how do you do it?

I clean it only if it becomes stained. I use Clorox Clean-Up. Takes bug stains, etc., right out.

If I'm washing the bike in warm weather, I just hose it down good and let it drain and dry outside (while watching it like a hawk, of course)!   Smiley

I was wondering if just taking the whole seat pad for a dunk in the bathtub would be a good thing?

I hosed off the pad and cover on my Giro in the shower this winter.  Let it hang dry over the bathtub.
