Time to start exercising that wrist. Get out there and twist that grip and go.

Triple Nickle is a great distillery and has a awesome taste testing setup if you are interested in that sort of thing

It's actually my left hand, so luckily it is more of a reach than a twist. Not sure I could have done 200 miles on the throttle. Not yet anyway.

Another update: As for the wrist thing I got from Grainger, I really "tore it up" literally. I noticed it was staring to rip around the thumb since it was not reinforced and only a punch through the material. Got me through the day and will again this weekend. Still not bad for $10. I might have to get out my sewing kit and use my 7th grade home-ec skills to fix it LOL I did also purchase another medical-based wrist support which was more like $60. Not as much compression, but still some good wrist support for everyday tasks.
