The bike is opperational again

On Tuesday afternoon, I got the phone call that my cables had come in to Woods Fun Center, and that I could pick them up at any time. Now I had ordered these cables, and was waiting for them, so I made plans to pick them up on my way home from work. I found out about a happy hour later that night for Morgan's birthday, which I am sorry to say I had to miss. We will make it up at some point, she is a cool cat. Anyway, when I got home I started ripping the bike apart to put the new cables on the bike. This might have been easier if I had a shop manual, but I don't yet, so I just winged it.
In all, it took me about an hour, and I have working gauges now. Unfortunately they are not illumenated gauges, but at least I can track my mileage and figure out my speed now. Also I told Kelly she couldn't ride it until I have 6,000 miles under my belt, so they officially start now.
I am in Houston for the weekend, so no riding for me, but I will when I can.
