I am dumb, but not stupid.  I was smart enough to install a seperate length
of hose to test rather than cut into the hoses.  :-)

This is what I ended up doing with a "T" connector and an additional length
of hose that I got at Napa Auto parts.  There's a little more plumbing now,
but it's clean and it works, so I'm happy.

Thanks to you and everyone else on the list for your help.  Now I just
gotta install the new Topeak Panoram Bike computer (like a Sigma, but
nicer) and I'm all set to leave Friday morning.

BTW - anyone else notice that the speedo is waaaay off on the ST?  I
expected 5-6% error, but at indicated 80 MPH, I'm really doing 71 MPH.
