A truncated version of the 3 Creeks route today. I've been feeling Monday's 80% boost 30k ride a little more than even Saturday's 50 with full e-assist, so I had an extra rest day before attempting a 26er. And found myself working harder than on Monday! Forgot to charge the Bafang, didn't I!
Ther was just enough in the "tank" to pull off the intended 26km but, below 60% charge, the supply sags a little, and creek trails undulate, it's a law of geology and town planning. By the time I started climing out of the Merri Valley, the Bafang had started doing the harsh vibration alerts that I needed to work harder because it was "hungry." It's a great warning feature, but it sucks because it hits when you need it least, hill grinds. Just the laws of physics electronics and chemical engineering. Nothing for it but to back off the boost, drop a gear or two and spin.
I'm not used to that. 😣 But I got home OK. 😃
Ironically, I decided to do the ride to ease some leg stiffness this morning. Not sure I'll have less leg stiffness now, but ok. I'm calling this 70% boost, I don't have that as a setting point, but that's the level I felt I got because of battery sag below half charged. The nominal setting was 80% but, towards the end, it felt like 40% and it's steep climb up Spectrum Way!
