Has anyone tried alternatives for lubricating your chain!!!!

[mr self destruct]

Vegetable oil is better than nothing, but its viscosity is only about 20% of that of engine oil. Probably best not to use it on a long term basis, but it'll be better for lubricating a chain than WD40.

Being serious now, I had a mk2 Golf GTD that happily ran on Veg oil (back when it was actually cheaper than diesel), so I'd agree that veg oil is far too thin to use as chain lube.
My mrs said everywhere I went I left the smell of a chip shop.
