The day I have about 4 extra spare hours a week, I'll give that a go! :-)
Seriously though - I barely get enough time to ride my damned bikes, never mind fettle them. If I get three rides in a week, that's roughly 4.5 hours riding, plus 45 minutes (3x15) cleaning and re-lube'ing. Any more time in the garage than that and I'll be disowned by my family.
Then again, I have had 3 chains snap on me, so I'm not a great case study for lazy maintenance.
