    well it comes with a narrow straw to apply it, so i was spraying it on, and some was coagulating at the bottom of the chain in the form of a raindrop.
    Was I spraying too much on?

    I just did my first chain lube now, are you supposed to wipe the excess off, or just leave it all on? Its a wax/oil mix lube.

    Had first rain ride this morning, it was great!
    Of course on a completely empty motorway north of Huntly@ 6am, I get stuck behind a petrol tanker, spraying water everywhere.
    Then I got 2 cagers up my bum but thankfully the closest one behind me kept his distance.
    Yep, rain is sweet, no problems. Although I think the gravel was a bit slidey, my front tyre shifted a bit in a turn on the wet stuff at Hampton downs rd.
    How can they leave all the gravel there, and not lay the road, when I was in Dauckland laying rds, we would have been crucified for what they do on Hampton Downs rd. Terrible breaches of STMS. The racetrack carpark looks good though.
