Yes, it was messy.

I didn't even get to the bikepath before I founds the mess the first time. Was carrying the bikes on a rooftop Thule rack, and found the green goo running out of the hubs, and down the spokes, rims, and tires, when we got to the bikepath, and went to take the bikes off the rack.

Have not used Phil Wood grease since (and the nearly full used once tube of Phil Wood grease leaked out all over the inside of my tool rollaway in retaliation). How can you trust a grease to work when it won't survive without melting/breaking down sitting in your toolbox?
