put some oil on it and go for a ride, then clean it and the rust should be gone

Say, hypothetically,(not me :oops:) that you forgot to lube up before a salty ride- oooerr! After a quick rinse with a watering can, cuz your hosepipe's frozzed, you leave it till morning. Et voila, bright orange chain!.. matches my bike i suppose..
