When I started out I was shitty at pretty much everything. I ate a fast food places a lot because I didn't realize I could charge my phone in libraries. I spent a metric fuckton on wheel replacement and repairs because for the first 2000 miles I didn't want to invest in better quality equipment. I estimate that I spent at least $300 on getting rear rim spoke/alignment work.

I never ate food that required water to cook. I did eat some "steam in the bag" items dry, though.
Picture is from when I pulled a muscle in my foot and spent the day and night at Nickel Plate Beach in Ohio.
