I agree with V (and whoever else she agreed with)
My approach is, I'd rather finish a ride strong and happy and invigorated rather than worn out and possibly demoralized.
There's also the SAG thing. I don't like to rely on SAG drivers as a bailout, I think they're more there for people with unexpected problems, either mechanical or physical.
Keep trucking, Starfish, we're all rooting for you!![]()
