tool kit/maintenace

Just got my first tool kit as I plan to start a maintenance routine on my Scott hybrid what kind of schedule should I be doing?

Clean and oil the obvious bits like the drivetrain every week, grease the pedals and hubs every 6 months or so, that's about it tbh. Bicycles are very, very simple machines. Don't be tempted to "oil" the hubs or bottom bracket though, you'll just thin out the grease and shorten their lifespans.

As above, plus if you regularly ride in wet or mucky conditions, clean your cables every few months to keep your shifting nice and smooth. Oh, and keep your brakes and rims clean and free of grime.
