Whaddaya know! I've got both the Phil's grease and the Proofhide! Gotta mix me up a batch of that sniffin' stuff...
(it's the cod liver oil in the Proofhide that really does the trick, y'know)

The other day I was changing wheels on my roller skates and I also changed out the bearings on the wheels. The smell of the bearings grease was exciting to me.

Wow - my throat and chest are constricting with admiration and envy for this beautiful machine. Sigh.

Julibird....golly thanks! But hey you know what?- I've been having a bit of trouble getting the shifting to work just right- dropped my chain twice today!
It is a lovely bike though, and I feel privileged to own it. Hope I can get my shifting act together soon. (kinda missing my trusty bar end shifters right now)

What a beautiful bike! And dreamy . . and oddly enough creamy, like butter.
Might need to get those cables adjusted maybe?

Lisa,
there is a possibility that your chain / derailleur / etc is not QUITE adjusted correctly. Do not assume that YOU are the problem!
