Food for the week?!

When you lube the chain, you should consider wiping the excess lube. It should not be dripping for a day or two.
My commute is usually just 2-3 miles, but full of traffic stops (it is in Manhattan), that's why I rarely sweat unless it's hot weather. The main thing about biking clothing is the pants, not shirts, since the torso hardly moves. I'll heed your advice of wiping excess lube.
