Road Cycling “It is by riding a bicycle that you learn the contours of a country best, since you have to sweat up the hills and coast down them. Thus you remember them as they actually are, while in a motor car only a high hill impresses you, and you have no such accurate remembrance of country you have driven through as you gain by riding a bicycle.” -- Ernest Hemingway

Another vote for Chain-L.

I think the L stands for Love.

Mine is collected as dew from the breasts of virgins fairies. Not really, I use Finish line wet on some bikes. My go to is Pro Link Gold and I don't know how long it lasts since I lube and wipe every ride or 15-20 miles. Chain stays clean and wear is low. Takes about 2 minutes and is part of the routine like pumping tires.

Just picked up a bottle of NixFrixShun and looking forward to trying it out. Been using RnR Gold for years.
