Everything is working again with my greatly streamlined instrument cluster is in place! (Well my LED “idiot light” for “neutral” is always on now so one last adjustment/fix sometime soon!)

Whups, my new speedo’s turn indicator LED was only going on when left signal was running.

OK, so I sorted out all my re-wiring and was able to replace my stock honda huge instrument cluster with a much smaller and streamlined single mini-speedometer with four instrument lights combined in it.

Today I did much more than I thought I would – I pulled out and disconnected all instruments and relocated the ignition/key switch.

Today Hunter helped me inspect, test-drive, buy, and drive 100+ miles home from a mom-n-pop custom bike modifier in California’s central valley.

Hunter and i were biking the other day parallel to the caldecott tunnel / 24, and were horrified to see a mole, midday, just rolling over and over again down the hill/pavement. We think maybe a huge rainstorm drove it out and it got lost trying to not drown on the road. they are ALL HANDS, no limbs! Poor thing was made to dig/swim only, not walk/run.

THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU donors to my AIDS LifeCycle8 bikeride!
I took about 500 photos myself during the seven days of riding. Hunter also took about that many photos, too. I will make a combined album soon and edit a video as well and put links to them on this site.

Well, Hunter and I made it home safe and sound last night! We finished just before the course formally closed, yesterday (saturday) around 3pm.

Well, we are all waiting to roll after CA Highway Patrol. Shut down the course due to early rain. Not sure if we’ll get cleared to ride.

So far so good. We made it safe and dry until now. Today started light rain with wet tent. It’s let up over breakfast mostly so we are hoping hoping for a break today and crossing our fingers.
