It just turned dark.
The pony has been spitting and sputtering since you left that last gas station (where the big round truck had just finished pumping premium into the tank you were pumping out of).
After a last gasp it stops completely, leaving you stranded on that lonely two lane with the occasional 18 wheeler blasting through. What to do? What to do?
First, rummage around until you find the Road Strobes you bought from Versabag.
Turn them on. One on the front of the bike. One on the back. Your bike is visible for half a mile or more. Best $10.00 you ever spent. Batteries last 100 hours and are replacable. Five year warranty.
Now start walking....
