I don't think Secondcurve meant any offense. He may have just been with you, in his mind, riding along at mile 916 and suddely the sled starts to die.
Cough, cough, cough, kaput, cough, cachoke, chugh, ca blehhhhhhhhhhh.
What do you do? Out in the middle of a 50 mile straightaway run, after going 80 mph?
You try to start the kaput sled. You can't start it, someone gets on the cell phone to get a GPS marker for your posiiton, and then you hop on someone elses ride, and git to the next station closest. Pickup the dead sled later.
BTW, has anyone checked out how Bear Islander is doing down in Antartica lately?
