This stuff looks good.  I have two other chain lubricants but they all fling and are messy.  This seems better than those.  I can just use those for my bicycle.  Can I pick this stuff up at somewhere like an ace hardware?

Ah ha! Our noob shows his face!

Just be sure the wheel's lined up. That's really the most fiddly part.

And if you're new to chains I highly recommend the Dupont chain lube
http://www.webbikeworld.com/t2/motorcycle-chain-lube/dupont-teflon-chain-lube.htm
It's magic in a can - can be had at hardware stores (lowes) and is cheaper than most everything else. Generally recomendation for chain lube is every 300 or so miles and after encounters with water (rain, tub time etc)

Not sure on Ace, but likely. I know it can be had at Lowes - possibly Home Despot too

Drive up to Andrews for a separation brief just to find out it has been canceled. Nice of them to let me know ahead of time.

Left work at noon and hit Harwood on the way home. Little chilly today and the roads are full of dirt and other trash. Worth it all the same!

+1 If you were one of 5 in the same stretch I'd be looking at VDOT.

Didn't even thought about taking picture, but lucky for me since I was the last one VDOT safety patrol guy helped me first , and refuse to take a tip. Guess cant tip state employee. There was 3 more on 495 , after you get off 66.

Put a new power steering pressure hose on the Golf. Learned the right way to do it, if I ever need to again...  laughingdp

Met a guy (can't remember his name) who was just purchasing an 848evo at Coleman's Woodridge today.  Told him about this place, so maybe we'll see him.
