Thursday - I rode the Ural into town today to do a bit of shopping. I was looking for a hanging solution for my riding gear in the shed. It's been lying around on top of things since we arrived. And, no good place for the helmets, gloves, and other gear.
It's about 78°F at 11am, so it isn't too terribly warm to be sitting outside for a test session. And there is a hint of a breeze. Where's the 15mph wind that the weather folks were predicting?
The inner liner of my Nolan helmet has disintegrated. Not the hard foam but the inner liner which makes it comfortable. The product has been discontinued. Does that mean the helmet needs to be tossed? The helmet was purchased in March, 2013, so it really does need to be replaced. What’s the “standard”? Something like five years. Up until 2018, it was used almost daily so I guess I’m shopping for a new helmet…
Saturday - This mornings task was replacing the windshield wipers on the class A. They are long at 32” and use a saddle mount instead of the normal J-hook. The ones I picked up on Amazon were a little bit wider than what was there so the saddles needed to be modified slightly. I have since found that the wiper blades are available in a narrower width but it doesn’t seem worth sending them back. I need some Loc-tite as the hardware they shipped doesn’t appear to include a locknut.
This afternoon, I volunteered to help cook dinner in the hall. Yesterday, pounded chicken flat and today I get to fry and bake them. We are having chicken parmigiana.
I also needed to renew my passport. I did it online but with the government shut down, who knows how long it’ll take…
Hopefully you're not planning on any overseas travel any time soon!
