Basically the point is that dirty chain collects dust and sand and grinds down the cogs faster. Usually you should change to a new chain when the chain has stretched about 0,75-1%, if the chain has stretched more it has begun to eat on the cogs and then a new chain won't sit on the teeth properly and will start slipping. Normally if this is the case we would recommend to change the whole drivetrain or ride the old one until it breaks. Of course it depends on the quality of the drivetrain, eg if you have a 12-speed cassette it's a lot more prone to wear than, say, a 8-speed one. The fewer gears the longer the life of parts. If you swap the chain often enough you will get more kms from the chainrings and cassette. For normal riding (~5-15kms per day, again, depending on conditions, riding style, drivetrain etc) you should swap the chain about twice a year. If you use the gears evenly and ride so that you don't force the change and use proper gear then you can easily go through several chains before needing to change the cassette.

----- three!
- Cold old house with memories about white cats, whipping sticks and aluminium candy wrappers
- Burning the old house
- Cat is my only friend but it has fleas and I slept on the livingroom floor because mice were making noise inside the roof and I was scared
- Alone but books, except that one time when I was napping and uninvited people came over
- When the periods came I was never ready and at that moment my childhood ended
- Moving away and back again and again, why won't you just separate?
- I got a pair of fancy new shoes but others bullied me and I never wore them again
- Finally that shitshow ended and I'm on my own
- Years of angry and alternative truths
- Years of realization and actual truths
- What the hell am I supposed to do now?
- Darkness has settled but I can't and the neighbours are banging doors and it sounds like shooting
- Finally something good
- And then people and animals die
- What the hell am I supposed to do now? Pt. 2

I remember the phone number of an older guy i talked online for like a week when I was 13 or so, 20 years ago. Thanks brain. Also thanks for reminding me about all the embarassing/shameful stuff i've done over the years. Why not replace those slots with, dunno, SOMETHING USEFUL!
Kodak Gold colors always look good to me, sun or rain!
Interesting video, thanks for sharing!
looks like the poor thing burned its lips too :(
