Our car broke down today, right at a mechanic's garage where I was using their auto vaccuum.
We had started the day way out by driving down to the cabin in the country where, had it broken down there, would have seen us walking almost 2 km. on a stony dirt road to find someone with a phone as there is no cell phone service down there, either - or hydro - or water.
It put me in mind of the trouble I would be in if my bicycle broke down 30 kms in on the TransCanadaTrail in the outback 'somewhere'.
First off, I was wearing light sandals. That was a good reminder to get myself really good and light-weight runners to keep in the backpack. I paid a lot for Nike's once and they were terribly uncomfortable. I'm not sure what is the best brand to purchase but it must be one with an excellent support.
Hopefully, though, I'll have no bicycle break-downs or brake-downs.
