Note
Bike cost vs. bike maintenance. I'm not sure I have an opinion on this either way, just writing it down.
Bike was roughly $1100
* Replaced OE seat, $40
* Replaced OE tires with nearly OE tires, 2*$70
(180)
* Replacing replacement tires, $2*60 (front somewhat optional, not badly worn but thought matchy match would be nice)
(300)
* First cassette and chain, $60
(360)
* 1x upgrade - $300 for shifter, chainring, 11 spd rear d, chain, cassette
(660)
* Replacing 11spd chain, $30 (current at 50%)
(690)
* Grip experiment, $60
(750)
* Tubeless experiment, valves and sealant and tape, $65
(810)
* New BB, $20
(830)
* New brake pads, F&R, 40
(870)
This doesn't count seat bag or feed bag or bottle holders or map holders.
Bike has approximately 4500 miles. I am lousy with maintenance, so maybe chains should last longer if cleaned more often, etc.
Speaking of chains, Trucker is already at 75% chain wear after less than 1000 miles. Tires are still pristine.

Walking warm up/down 9:07 0.6 mi (15:11 / mi) +15m 14:04 / mi
ahr:116 max:153 shoes: Roclites 295 2
Orienteering 59:44 3.33 mi (17:56 / mi) +154m 15:41 / mi
ahr:145 max:170 11c weight:215.8lbs shoes: Roclites 295 2
Revised Bishop.
I was terrible until I crossed into no man's land/bermuda triangle, then I was fine. It was like I couldn't concentrate or think straight.
I tried not to peek prior to going, so on flip I didn't go the exact way I wanted, and miscounted inlets leading to a too-early departure from the swamp, so some parallel reentrants toward the swamp. Then a sloppy path to 2, no big deal, but was not deliberate to #3 and missed wide right, then just stood on the streamer not seeing it (my fault) while trying to make sense of the terrain (right terrain, but streamer at my six).
Almost skipped #5, why do I keep doing that. Then finally okay.

Note
Not completely broken up about not riding in today. (it's been pouring for a while)
Resumed mfp'ing thems calories
proposed general training week:
M: work round trip, 30 miles bike
T: {run | paddle} + weights
W: {paddle | run}
R: work round trip, 30 miles bike
F: run
S: Long bike, 30-60 miles
S: AM orienteering 60-90 minutes + optional bonus afternoon activity (paddling?)
I acquired half of the materials to make a canoe trailer for my bicycle (a former kid trailer). I need to fashion the rest (cross bars for canoe, bar to bike, some hitching mechanism), then Newburgh Lake is just three miles away.

Less of a "look at my workout!" post than a "see why I didn't workout" post. Library, bank, Dairy King, w/ dogs and 20 lb pack.
Unrelated...So I'm neither skinny nor a super cyclist....how would a fit cyclist buy pants? It was all I could do to get something over my thighs that wasn't all saggy in the waist.
