No 787s on the route home or any where close to home. Rental car is a last resort. Really do not want to to do that.

I actually like Strava enough, I would not mind paying a modest annual fee for the stripped down version they now offer for free. But I don't really want/need the "premium" features they offer and $80/year seems slightly steep for a thrifty guy like me. I would be fine with paying $20 or $25/year for the basic version.
edit: I looked it up and BF is $12 annual fee. I am ok with that, same rationale as above.

I wonder if the adapter have some form of voltage modifier in it that has failed. If It was here in front of me,, I would try to connect the battery directly with some jumper leads and leave the adapter out of the circuit, as a test. Safely mind you. Just to see if the drill and battery play together.

the ‘shortcut’ included a hike of around 3 - 4 miles … we did it with our bikes
we passed a few people that declared we could not do the hike with our bikes - which motivated me even more to complete the hike … on a couple of spots including the last big climb out of a small gorge we had to carry and hand off the bikes
then the clouds increased and grew darker and it began to drizzle … and we were maybe 2 hours from our origin in an unfamiliar area (first time riding / hiking in the area) … around 2 hours before sunset

to add - I was struggling to consume enough water because of lower abdomen pain (which later was diagnosed as a 5mm kidney stone
