I chose the &#8220;Kingwood &#8211; FM 1485 &#8211; Kingwood&#8221; route riding to the north and back for a total of <strong>32.3 miles<\/strong>. The Canyon Endurace CF SLX carried me and after the 12:18 PM finished I decided to wax the chain. Some squeaks from the chain signaled me it was time. The last time was April 14th at <strong>15,881 miles<\/strong> and today the Canyon has <strong>17,588<\/strong>. 1,700 miles is about right between waxing. I prefer wax over other chain lubes because it isn&#8217;t messy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed-youtube aligncenter wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Rain Threat Disappeared Leaving Humid A Bike Ride In Its Wake\" width=\"1200\" height=\"675\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/x0lg8YUH_-Y?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Today was the 9th time biking this route.
