    All the TransAmerica pics are stored on home computer. We'll be back in 5 more months.

    It was a very tough trip for them, a couple of 60 year old women on a self supported tour. Camped and cooked out most nights. Met some interesting/terrific folks along the way, learned a lot about themselves. They're talking about doing it again in a couple of years on the Northern Tier route.

    There is a price to pay for all of the riding and bike activities that I involve myself with...Mrs. RW assigned me to paint the kid's bedrooms. Squeaky roller...no problem for NFS.

    Yikes! That roller won't squeak for another 10,000 feet ;)

    ALL ORDERS from last week shipped. Quiet chains, oh yes.

    Folks, orders are arriving at the new commerce site thank you very much and kudos to the clever people using the discounted shipping code :)

    If you can not reach : NixFrixShun immediately please be patient. I've moved to a new internet provider and so called "propagation" of the new location can take up to a few days.

    Go Ride your bike!

    I just placed my first order - this is the most money I have ever spent on lube (for a bike anyways ) - looking forward to being blown away by the performance of this product. The consistent praises of the product by the VSalon have pushed me over the line to place the order (shipping discount helped).

    Who knows - I could posting about my first tubular wheels/custom frame purchase if this trend holds up.

    It will be thoroughly tested on the trails of NE through the winter.

    When you realize how long the stuff lasts you'll think it's your cheapest lube purchase ever. I bought a couple bottles when it first came out 2 years ago. I just finished the first bottle last month.

    Hey TT, there's a slaying session going on over at the SlowTwitch forum... From a bunch of tri-heads who've never given NFS a whirl.

    I'm giving my personal experience, but they're trying to call you out directly.

    But for people who spend their entire riding lives staring at a power meter, it ain't data... I suspect they'll remain unconvinced.

    I've shared a bit as well. I suspect that even though in the real world NFS outperforms all other lubes except in those somewhat rare velodrome or clear blue sky TT situations, PTFE based lubes will still get a lot of business. Granted, none of them hold up for beans, but they "test" well in the lab. Not much we can do in trying to convince folks who spend much of their day counting angels on the heads of pins.

    Need to make a special version aimed at the triathletes. Add some text to the label claiming that it'll enable the user to ride in a straight line, stop in a reasonable distance, etc.

    Claim an increase of 1% FTP and a decrease of 15g of aerodynamic drag, and you won't be able to keep it in stock...

    Thanks for the heads up ladies and gents. I'd prefer to let the product do the talking.
    FWIIW we scored very favorably in the VeloNews lab test that was published this year. IIRC we were rated as one of the top performers. What else is there to say other than give it a shot?
    Kudos for Tom and Josh P. answering the questions at S.T.
