• Happy Thanksgiving to all of you! I hope that you all have something to be grateful for this year and for many years to come
  • America has reached 250 years, and I am grateful to be here, in the best country in the world. Thank every one of you who helps make this country a better place, those who have gone before and risked it all, and those who've paid the ultimate price to make the United States what we are today.

    Happy Birthday America! Let Freedom Ring for all time!

Please help round out my "get home when my car dies" kit. Thanks

If your goal is to be able to get home expeditiously and calling someone isn't an option, how about a bicycle? They make folding bikes that will fit in the trunk of any car and take up about as much room as a large pack.

Big Plus One

That's the best idea on the page. Well, that and having a dozen ways to charge your cell phone. You can make a hundred miles in a day on a bicycle. Hell, in Illinois, you could probably make 150 with all the flat land there.

If you could mount a pair of saddlebags on your bike (not that hard) I think you'd be good to go.

I hope you live downhill!:D
 
+another on the bike. I have one and forgot its there,( I don't use a car much) but I like the idea of the pannier packs too, that way you can have everything ready to go, all nice and neat, and just move out if you have to. I am going to rethink my car kit.
