Spring Cleaning ... or maintenance ...

Got an email from Motion Pro that prompted this post ... Hopefully you changed the oil last fall before you parked the bike. Same goes for fork oil. I did the former but not the latter.

(Not to start a debate ... not sure if what I do is better or worse ... but I use graphite on my bicycle and moto cables. Dry lube so it shouldn't hold / attract dirt. Goes on with a volatile liquid that evaporates and leaves behind the graphite.)

My spring cleaning / maintenance solution was to just ride all winter. Easier.
