I've got a Ride smoother than a limousine.

Ride reminds me of a roller coaster. It's got great buildup, the experience is exhilarating, and you can get rough without being worried about hurting yourself. But how it leaves you feeling after is unpleasant, and can be a real headache. I think it was a worthwhile one-time purchase, but I won't be buying it again. I'll go with the water-based Ride lube, with something thicker and easier to clean up for anal play.

Use

Do you like sex? What about sex... in the butt? Do you like your sex to be easy, smooth, luxurious and hassle-free? Ride. I love this lube almost as much as I love the guy I use it with. When it comes time for me to fit some big equipment into tight spaces, I reach for this lube. There's simply no other lube me and the boyfriend enjoy more for our special intimate moments. And because it's silicone based, it makes our showers more steamy than before without washing off. I would recommend this for any couple looking to take their lube to a new level. I went from drug store water-based lubes to this, and I'm never looking back. It's condom safe, hypoallergenic, and I haven't had any issue using it with silicone toys. It works flawlessly no matter what I throw at it! I probably wouldn't use this for myself alone though, as the cleanup just isn't worth it. More on that later.

Texture / Consistency / Thickness / Viscosity

The texture of this lube is amaaaaaaaazing. It's like liquid silk. I've never felt something so smooth and creamy. I've even left it on for a few minutes after finishing, just in case some of it soaks in and makes my skin feel smoother. It's honestly amazing. Gone are the days of the occasional "Oof!" during sex. With Ride, it's smooth sailing all the way. It's not stringy at all, it's smooth and soft. I feel spoiled every time I use it.

Sadly, the one area that is kind of a major drawback to this lube is the thickness. It's hardly any thicker than water. Don't use this lube unless you're prepared to get it everywhere. Because really, you can't wipe it off easily, so anything you touch will be slippery as a fish until you clean it with soap. That being said, it's easy to lube up a cock or a toy, just a few strokes and you're good. Just keep in mind the hand you stroke with will be coated in lube too. And that lube ain't going anywhere, my friend. This stuff does not dry out. Ever, as far as I can tell. I spilled some and that spot on my bedside table is still slippery. But really, this lube is kinda worth the mess.

Taste / Aroma

There is no taste or smell to speak of. Having gone down on the boyfriend after giving him a thorough lubing with this stuff, I can say I've never had an issue with it. I mean, my face gets covered in lube, but that's a different problem altogether. There's no taste that I've noticed, and no smell at all.
    • No smell
    • No taste

Performance

This stuff performs. Like, we're talking Energizer Bunny levels of performance. It just keeps going. I have never once had to refresh this lube. When it's on something, it's staying on. It doesn't run off or wipe off. And that's great, because it takes my boyfriend FOREVER to finish. There are never any breaks for more lube, we just keep going until we're done.

That being said, here is my biggest peeve with this product. Clean-up. Or, should I say, lack thereof. This stuff will. not. come. off. Even in the shower, with a bar of soap in my hand and lathering the spots that are lubed, it won't come off. And it will run down with the water and coat the bottom of my shower in lube, which will be there for days. It takes me forever to get any amount of this stuff off of my skin. It's really absurd, and a big reason why I don't use it all that frequently. It's great during, but a nightmare after. I've never had a lube that was this much of a pain to clean up. Which sucks, because I really like this lube. But I might not buy more because of this. It's just not worth the hassle for me.
    • Long lasting
    • Needs to be washed off with soap and water
    • Not compatible with all materials

Packaging

I adore the packaging for this product. The label with the cowboy on it makes me smile every time I look at it. It makes me feel butch and manly, even when I'm planning the gayest sex imaginable. It's not subtle by any means, but I truly adore that little cowboy man.
    • Easy to use / dispense
    • Not discreet
    • Very informative packaging

Personal comments

In all, I really like this lube. It's a good time. But, like a house party, the clean up might not be worth the good time. Luckily, it hasn't stained any of my sheets though. So there's that.

Experience

Both me (bottom) and my boyfriend like this lube. He says it's smooth and silky, and I never say "Dear God the lube dried up, that hurts." It's a great time for both of us. It makes putting things in your butt a truly pleasant experience.
