Personally I use the Shimano pin, clean it with a machine and leave it on the bike untill time to replace.
Ooooohhh, the irony. Then again, nothing says you can take a pass with a chain machine then move the chain to a 2L bottle where you claim it is more efficient.
Actually, I remove my chain when I'm doing crank maintenance and appreciate not having to push pins. I know damn sure that singlespeed riders remove their chains a LOT!!!!
