Funny story about my chain
#1
So, I stopped riding to work around last December, just too cold for me. When I stopped riding I had a funny skip mostly while riding in my high gear. I'm riding again starting Monday so I replaced the rear shifter and just tuned it up a bit after sitting for several months, skip is still there. I got to working on it and found this:

Fixed now, but could have been a worse way to find out about it!

What was is it? Something simple?
Good maintenance to your Bike, can make it like the wheels are, true and smooth!
