Aye shame we missed you Jonesy. Nice to meet you Voodoo, was a great right out! Sun came out in full force, hurrah!

Thats fine dude. Where would you be joining us?

Ill be up for it if its fine. I can meet you at Devils. Mongoose, you still up for this?

It means you suck! Just kidding.

Haha Im sure my bike would manage

Ill come pick you up Queen Bee

Usual rules...if its dry and if there are women - yes.

Where can I buy some?

Think I tried White spirit once, and it cleaned up em great, but then it came back after. Maybe it is the lube Im using...

What the hell is going on....

Bit of a commute though! I do have a Creme Egg easter egg I was given (No it isnt a HUGE creme egg Im afraid), and I don't want it.

Well fancy coming and doing mine then?

Voooo - Indeed! Better than a paintbrush! Skoarnet - The Muc off lube I use apparently IS dry lube... http://www.cycleworld.co.uk/product/14658/MUC_OFF_Dry_Chain_Spray_Lube_400ml

Yeah I did use normal Oil before giving this stuff a try. Just a bugger to apply, so I went for an easier option! Being fairly new to this game, I have yet to learn which products work best through experience!

Ah, that would make sense. Bugger, I just bought another can! Ah well, I'll live.

Cheers Matty Voodoo, I didnt use it to lube the chain, but to clean it a few times (Muc off chain Cleaner). Though I also use their Chain Lube too. Ill check out paraffin too.

Yeah I noticed that stuff is popular for this use...Ill give it a shot, cheers

Got some crappy sticky stuff on my back wheel rim, and everytime I clean it off, it somehow regenerates. I think it was down to using Muc Off chain cleaner a while back, and got some on the rim when washing it off. What can I use on the rim to clean it off?

Stop derailing my thread! You two go argue in your own thread! Ed, yeah I know, we should all visit our grandparents more than we do...

Probably not as she lives alone. Why are you offering to be my grandad?

Yeah I was always toying with the idea. Dont reckon Ill be riding it until the roads are better anyway.

Well my nan has a garage, which my car is residing in! But going round there is such a bother, she doesnt shut up... And if I could get away with having it in the lounge, I would!

I havent ridden for like 2/3 weeks. Time and weather have put me off. Yeah its covered, pretty well by a single cover. And I thoroughly washed it after my last ride. Just dont get where the crud came from... Oh well, thanks for advice, guess Im just worrying as its my first winter as a biker.

Took the cover off my bike today for first time in about 2/3 weeks. After the last ride, I cleaned it all with a cold hose on low pressure, and wiped it all down, and coated all the easy to reach metal with ACF-50. Noticed that the brake discs were rusting Also a bunch of crud on them, so I immediately washed with cold soapy water and a brush after a quick google. Fired the engine up for a few mins, and cleaned the bike again. Winter hates me I dont have anywhere to store it indoors, is this normal for winter? Sould I be worried? Ill be putting her through a full service come spring, for sure.
