I got up at 8, did the pet stuff, played some games, and then got up for breakfast. After breakfast I went out to the garage. The new throttle control came yesterday and I wanted to install it on my bike.
I hooked up the new throttle to test it. It worked great. The Amazon vendor I bought it from charged $14. There's another vendor selling the same thing for $29. I feel like writing a review.
Getting the old grips off the handlebars was a real pain. I had to have Ellen hold the bike while I used a wrench to twist them off. It took a lot of time and effort. I got the right one off without damaging it. Unfortunately I tore the left one. Then new grips fit fine and feel better than the stock ones.
When that was done I installed the bottle holders on both bikes. They're trick, with adjustable grips. After that there wasn't anything else to do until I get stuff tomorrow evening.
It was 1 by the time I got back to the house. I had lunch. Then we left to go to the post office and HEB. Lucy really wanted to go. She was prancing around like she hasn't done in a long time. That meant the last stop was Tomlinson's.
We got home about 3. After a little surfing Ellen left for Hog Heaven. I watched a couple of videos. Then I was sick of them. I spent the rest of the afternoon and evening watching TV and a movie. It was a nice change
