What in the world did we do before the internet?

Today I discovered that my tricycle had a loose chain.  Oh, Dear!  How much will this cost to get fixed?  Then I remembered that I have a nearly unlimited source of useful info at my fingertips.  Googled Bicycle Repair, and like magic -- great instructions, with videos.  All I needed was a pair of pliers, which I had, and the willingness to try, which I also had.  Success was had in about 10 minutes.  I rode the tricycle in this beautiful Memorial Day weather after all.

 

Now, I need to get up the gumption to try it on the road.  It's about 1 mile to the town center, but the road is a busy one.  I'm leery of riding on it. So what if I got tall orange flags and wore a brightly colored shirt?  Uh........
