Just use a garden hose with one of those spray adjusters on the end that should do the trick.
For wheels use some degreaser if chain lube has flung of.
Also good idea to spray on some protector onto the metal parts to drive away water and prevent rust (keep away from brakes etc though)

If not put some tuna on it and see if a neighbours cat will lick it off

We use this stuff which has really good reviews in ride

We use a pressure washer but not at top power and use it judiciously as others have said.
Use brushes for the awkward bits.
We have a leaf collector that has a "blow" setting so sometimes we give the bikes a blow dry.
Often I ride my bike up the dual carriageway at 70mph (or thereabouts) and test the brakes.
But my favourite technique is - get someone else to do it
In winter after they've been sprayed with ACF50, we just hose them down gently so it's not washed off.
