who left this paw print?

Western North/Central Oregon Cascades. found this next to a large puddle in a forest road next to some deer tracks, in the same area as grouse.

track is about 1.75-2" wide.

i couldnt find a second print anywhere in front or behind.

bobcat scat?

location is northern oregon coast range, on the edge of a logging road.

definitely a bit hairy, slightly chunky, size is on the small side of 1" diameter, and segmented. looks like there is a scraped/cleared area right below the scat which is whats nudging me towards thinking it's bobcat over coyote.

How badly does a fork bag impact steering on rough trails?

Looking to get a bar bag or fork bags but not sure if this will be worse for steering than something on the back? Access is better but is it worth it for a sacrifice in ride quality?

I have a gravel bike with cable-pull disc brakes. Last time i touched the brakes was to put a shimano ice-tech rotor on the front. looked at these the other day and they're getting a little thin, so think its time to put some new ones on. whats the latest and greatest in rotor design currently?

its been like 7 years since i bought a new headlight. want something for long late night rides, but dont want crazy lumens. 400 is just about enough for me when my eyes are night-adapted.

Want a narrower beam.

what are some good options out there?

Looking for USBC only. not hub/dynamo charged, ideally under $100.
