>From my TransAm experience, one can kill a chain on paved roads in a week if its rainy. I was fendered, my cohorts not and as the designated mechanic I spent a lot of proactive time cleaning drivetrains (theirs much more than mine) and re-lubing to forestall wear and the impending need for replacement to preserve the drivetrain.
I recommend a toothbrush or two to help remove the fine slurry from wet roads, trails or paths. A spare chain if you really will be outside of contingent supply.
