Author Lisa Drewe also details historical, geographical and wildlife highlights, as well as her own adventures and mishaps. Author's Thoughts - Lisa Drewe This book shares my favourite day walks and adventures around 50 islands off mainland Britain and, in the true sense of islandeering, explores the coast along the way. It gives details of sea caves, cliffs and geos to explore, secret beaches, wild swims, and the huge diversity of cultural and wildlife highlights that every island has to offer. 2020 ‘Guidebook of the Year’ (OWPG) – ‘innovative, passionate and detailed – wonderfully inspirational’
Silca Super Secret Chain Lube Bottle (4oz)The Super Secret Chain Lube from Silca is a performance-enhancing chain lube that ensures your chain and drivetrain is as smooth and as efficient as can be. Taking inspiration from hot-wax chain dripping lube and is formulated to be environmentally, this chain lube is hard wearing, suitable to all weather conditions and resists the build-up of dirt and grime.Fast and Smooth Performing DrivetrainAll the benefits, none of the hassle. The Silca Super Secret Chain Lube combines the speed and silent running of a hot-melt wax-dipper chain to a drip applied wax lubricant. The Secret Chain Lube also utilises the world's fastest, most lubricious additive, nano-scale Tungsten Disulfide for maximum drive chain performance. Hot Wax Lube Benefits in a Drip Applied LubricantThe Super Secret Chain Lube started as a project to develop the fastest hot-melt wax lubricant in early 2019. Josh Poertner, CEO of Silca, has been recommending hot melt wax and helping pro cyclists and triathletes wax chains for years and he wanted to bring the performance advantages to Silca customers too. The project took a major turn from the world of IndyCar when Poertner was introduced to a group who had developed a technology to put micro-scale wax powders into quick-drying solutions that form a coating that is indiscernible from hot melt dipping in crockpots. The combination of air-drying liquid wax and Tungsten Disulfide quickly proved to beat all currently available hot melt waxes in friction testing while being much faster to apply. The nanoplatelets of WS2 (Tungsten Disulfide) in the Super Secret Chain lube has less than 1/3 the dynamic coefficient friction of PTFE and ¼ that of Molybdenum Disulfide (MoS2). The lube formula is also environmentally friendly, utilising 4 different types of wax and mild alcohol to act as a carrier. Features: Low friction lube that brings the same advantages as hot-melt wax-dipped chains with the convenience of drip applied lubricants Highly lubricious Tungsten Disulfide additive Environmentally friendly formula The chain should be very clean before application Leave chain to dry for at least 30 minutes before ridingBuy Silca Workshop from Chain Reaction Cycles, the World's Largest Online Bike Store.

Don't want to dedicate a crockpot to hot waxing your chain? Simply put the chain in the bag and immerse in hot water. Silca Secret High Performance Hot Wax BlendWhen Silca launched secret chain lube, they admitted that the starting point for this product was a hot wax recipe that they had used for years with pro teams that had won numerous world and Olympic medals. The idea behind Secret Chain Lube was to bring this technology to a lube that didn't require hot melting but turns out, many of Silca's customers were already big fans of hot waxing chains, and the requests flooded in for them to release the SILCA Secret Wax Blend.. so here it is. Highly Lubricating and Wear Resistant FormulaConsisting of highly refined laboratory-grade paraffin and a high concentration of 3 specific sizes of nano-scale Tungsten disulfide, Secret Chain Blend not only acts as a lubricant but actually acts to modify the surface of the chain, filling in all of the crevices of the metal with highly lubricious and wear-resistant tungsten disulfide particles. As a result, chains waxed with Secret Chain Blend and Secret Chain Lube will actually get faster over time and after repeated waxings. Secret Chain Blend is the only hot wax lubricant to have a specifically matched and compatible drip wax which can be used to 'top off' the wax as needed, extending the duration between hot wax applications, and guaranteeing the quietest running drivetrain possible. Using the combination of Secret Chain Blend and Secret Chain Lube can dramatically extend the chain and drivetrain component life (up to 10x).

The Silca Secret Chain Blend brings the same super speed and silence of Silca’s Super Secret Chain Lube but in a hot-melt wax-dipped chain version.The Silca Secret Chain Lube is based off the same formula Silca CEO Josh Poertner has used for years with pro teams that have claimed victories at the highest level of cycling. The idea behind the lube was to bring the same hot melt wax advantage to a drip applied lubricant, however many Silca customers are already fans of hot waxing chains, and requested the lube in a hot melt version. So, the Silca Hot Melt Wax blend is the answer to their calls.Consisting of highly refined laboratory grade paraffin and a high concentration of three sizes of Tungsten disulfide the blend not only acts as a lubricant but changes the service of the chain. Filling any crevices of the metal with the highly lubricious and wear-resistant Tungsten disulfide, the Secret Chain Blend will get faster over time with repeated waxings.The wax creates an incredibly fast running, low-friction chain. The nano platelets of WS2 (Tungsten disulfide) has less than 1/3 the dynamic coefficient friction of PTFE and ¼ that of Molybdeum Disulfide (MoS2).The Silca Secret Chain Blend packaging makes hot waxing a chain simple, even if you are new to the process. Simply place the chain into the open pouch. Place the pouch into a pot of room temperature water and bring up to just below boiling point. You should see the wax begin to melt. There is a transparent panel in the side of the pouch so you can check the process. Using a hanging hook, bent spoke, or zip tie lift the chain carefully out of the pouch, leaving it to dry hanging up above the pouch to collect any excess wax.The wax formula has the added benefit of being environmentally friendly and will help extend the chain and drivetrain component lifetime by up to x10.Key Features: Hot melt wax formula for dipped chains,Lubricious nano-scale Tungsten disulfide,Environmentally friendly formula,500g / 17.6 oz pouch,Chain should be very clean before application,For year round maintenance and to extend time between waxings top up with Silca Super Secret Chain Lube.
