I barely made it to my office yesterday. Had the "keep it under 50" and "keep it under 40" warnings blaring and was counting 100s of feet. #oops

Was going up a really big mountain and my destination was on other side and I was in the 20km range, dropping super fast, and well below the actual distance of 40ish km.

I knew downhill regen would make it up if I peaked the crest, and there was also a l2 charger at the top, but I was still nervous as fuck as I didn't know where the peak was.

Turns out I was right by the crest and it was okay. I did spend a few extra minutes at the charger there just in case. Of course the initial estimate was accurate and we got there with what it said plus the small charge I did at peak.
