Update on the update.

Wasted too much time reading Friction Facts and they note that Squirt benefits from they term "layering." Meaning that initially it is recommended that you reapply after every ride for the first 5 or so.

Yesterday's ride was 66 miles, 5k feet of climbing and the only sound was my hard breathing. Now I am quiet, but still slow up the hills.
