Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. I was just about to stock up on some Morgan Blue. I'm in Brisbane if it's cheaper to send there (probably not). I don't mind who does the re-distribute and can do if no one else wants to.
Woohoo!

Beta update.
As if you didn't already know, NFS is awesome. I've reapplied the lube two or three times over the last 800 mile or so. Daily wipe downs continue as per instructions.
Nicest part so far was a rain ride. I was in the big ring for 45 minutes or so so lots of time for grit to collect on the little ring. When I went to shift into the little ring I prepared myself for the typical crunching sound of the chain grinding that grit and my chainring to boot! Nothing. No crunching sound. That lube definitely sheds the muck better than anything else!
Post wet ride all I did was wipe the chain/cassette/rings down and reapply a bit of NFS. All was well again. Nice!

+1 on this. Since switching to NFS, I've stopped fully cleaning my chain after wet rides. Now I just rinse off the grit, wipe it dry with a rag, and re-apply. Love it.

FWIIW I got a note from the woman who runs the Lovely Bicycle blog (fantastic you should read it) who says something to the affect that "I've used the chainlube and I like it, as does all of Northern Ireland it seems. Synopsis: Basically it rains here on pretty much a daily basis, and I've put 600 miles on my roadbike in those conditions. No need for re-application so far."
Thanks everyone for the reports. In the New England region we do not get nearly as much rain...thank goodness.

Part of me can't wait until this winter for some real first hand testing.

And part of me can't wait until this winter so I can stop testing it. Daily thunderstorms all summer ensures every ride is a chance to test chain lube quality. Good thing NFS passes the test.

TT - Thanks much for the quick turnaround and the great service. Can't wait to try. Have been wanting to try this for a while.

Yeah, but I heard that NFS Universal has passed down a decree that you can't take a break. Buckle down, nose to the grind-stone, and all that. What will we do when we run out? Oh wait, we never run out. I forgot. Never mind.

My word is bond, you'll get all that and a bag of chips. NFS has exceeded expectations and we are comfortable saying it outloud.
THANK YOU for your patience. I'm bottling like mad and will ship all outstanding orders in the morning (tue).
Look out UK!!! NFS is coming your way.
FWIIW With the onset of CX season and changing weather we are looking forward to some field reports from our NFS sponsored race teams: RGM Watches-Richard Sachs Cyclocross Team, Zanconato-Cyclocross Team as well as our beloved eff-builders who are supplying free 2oz bottles with each new bike: Johnathan Green Cycles, Spectrum Cycles | The Perfect Bike Does Not Exist Until We Build it for You. and the aforementioned. It's going to be one he!! of a winter and boy are we proud of you guys :)

Received my care package today and rushed home to clean my chain and apply the lotion. Beautifully smooth in the stand, can't wait to ride tomorrow to see what it's like and how it goes over the next week or so.
Thanks a bunch Josh for the package, you rock.

ALSO >>> you can add Ypsilanti Cycles and Ergott Wheels to the list of stockists. Ypsilanti is a retailer and Eric is going to add a sample size bottle to some of his premium wheel builds as a bonus. Thank you boys. Ballers here we come.
