When you say you wipe your chain off pre ride, you mean you just grab a cloth and hold it on the sides while you rotate the pedals a few times?
Spot on. I like the 100% cotton painters rags available from Home Depot. I did wipe the chain off in the morning because I (cough) failed to do so the evening before. Generally speaking it is a good idea to wipe the chain after each ride. Also, for good measure I wipe off the inside of the chain rings and poke my finger / cloth against the jockeys. It only takes a few seconds.
