Re: What did you do to your bike today ??
I use Wurth Dry chain lube and get excellent mileage from chains and never get an fling off even if I lube just before a ride. From all the good reports I read, I really should try that stuff Blade. My current can is about empty iirc, so I think I'll invest in a can of Wurth next ...

Re: What did you do to your bike today ??
3 attempts made to take me out this morning. The best was a large round about before the M42. Woman pulled out, didn't even see me until I had to dart on the inside of her car between her and the island. Stupid cow.
The other two were lane switchers.
Must be a Monday morning thing.
