    Come on Dean, you know it doesn't get wet and muddy here in Laguna. Not often anyway. Dude, we have
    to ride together sometime, where do you live? I'm up on Bluebird.

    Back on topic, TriFlow for me as well.

    around El Moro and got to get to work....later. And yes lets hook up.

    Since it is beginning to become stylish to provide links without explanation.

    Really? I've thought about trying it, but when I looked at how much gunk accumulates on my saw when
    I'm cutting I decided against it.

    What kind of conidtions are you riding in?

    prolink, clean by wipe with damp cloth.

    I used this all last year...might have been a contributing factor to my chain failing as well. But I
    can't say for sure.

    Except you're supposed to top-post the bare link, so the reader completely misses it until scrolling
    down and saying "so wtf did they add?!?" and then scrolling back up.

    I like Prolink for dry conditions. It drys to quickly when wet or muddy. I like Maxima for wet and
    muddy. It's cosmoline based so it last's a long time.
