This is just too funny. I guess most of us have violated the leave

Poor little systems engineer. Was it his very last bike event ever?
I think not. But I do believe he learned a lesson about leaving well
enough alone. He did get it all reassembled eventually, and the event
was laid out so that the full 80 mile distance was made up of several
20-ish and 30-ish loops all originating from the central starting point,
so he did get 40 or 50 in and had a good time riding.

One time I talked a guy from work, a systems engineer, into
joining me at the Mathews County "Tour de Chesapeake." This was
his very first ever bike event. The night before, he decided to
completely take his rear derailleur apart in the hotel room,
including removing the pulleys. In the process, he lost some
parts, took him half the night to find where they ended up. So as
everyone else is taking off on the ride next morning, there he is
trying to reassemble a rear derailleur with his bike laid out on
the grass in front of the school.
