on pee &vinegar. Got up this morning with plenty, breakfast, shower, off to the coffee mill to procrastinate with friends, then settled in to the fatigue for the day. Rear tire on the heavy sidecar rig. Went through the drill of removing all the extrainious stuff to get the wheel off, like disconnect the shocks to lower the swing arm so that the axle can come out under the end of the muffler, then hook them back up to lift the bike high enough to get the wheel out from under the valanced fender. Took the wheel to the gas station to let them bust the bead. took the wheel home to spoon the old tire off and the new one on. Fight the tube into the space and the valve stem into the hole etc. Spoon the new tire into place and inflate. Beautiful, beads set at 17 pounds, deflate to ten pounds to make it easier to get wheel in under the fender. Wheel in place and all the bolts going back as if they belonged there. Just a few more things but I am running low on the vinegar although there seems to be no shortage of the other.
Figured I would wash up and lay on the couch and surf a bit of net while recharging myself. I don't want to forget something cause I was burnt out.
should have the rig on the road by mid afternoon.
