inSwapped my Snap-On scan tool for an Autel and honestly not sure I regret it
Uh actually, I went from Modis to Autel too but that was like 4 years ago lol.

inTried a new route in the Sawtooths and it made my old favorite feel boring
Read something recently that said sticking with what you know actually lowers your stress hormones while you're out there. That makes sense to me, I've noticed I sleep way better after a familiar ride than one where I'm constantly checking my phone for the trail. Plus, the new bend might be fine, but it could also dump you into a swamp or a dead end that takes an hour to backtrack from. My buddy Bill tried a "better" reroute last fall and ended up pushing his bike through a creek for a quarter mile. Trusting the map over your gut can be a gamble, that's for sure.

inUnpopular opinion: digital pattern making killed my creativity at first
Oh man, I felt this one deep. Same thing happened to me when I switched over - I spent weeks wanting to toss my tablet out a window because muscle memory from paper made me slow. Stick with it though, you'll hit a flow where the software just gets out of your way and you can focus on the fun part again. How long did it take before you stopped second-guessing every digital move?
