Thanks for weighing in with your experience Jan.
Sounds like you got 40 miles per bottle, so with 3 bottles you had at
least 50% margin for an 80 mile gap between water. No worries, pretty
simple.
I presume warmer sunnier conditions would reduce your miles per bottle, and
would eat into that

The main problem people have with their chains is that they wear, and if
you use them when too worn they ruin your chainrings and cogs. Sounds like
you have had this problem. The chain doesn't need to be clean so much as it
