I was considering a power meter, but I know I have so little power there is no point to measuring it. Sad.

Someday I should probably sit down and figure out what NGeco compatible cranks are also compatible with a BSA bottom bracket threading so that I can keep an eye out for an inexpensive used set. With having to buy crank arms separately I bet it would come out to around $450-$500 - like you said, not too shabby.
Although for that money I can buy a whole lot of coin cell batteries, and I'm not totally annoyed with changing them out yet

Over the last couple of days, I've spent four or five hours cleaning the car ahead of the road trip (kids are messy disgusting, man). Now I have to run some errands, but it's raining and I don't want to take the car out of the garage.

And, I hate taking a freshly cleaned car out in messy weather.

One day I received a text message from the app telling me that I needed to drive the car.
