    Utah 2014:  First morning of camping trip and the bike will not run!!   Kugel to the rescue!  Third day out in nowhere Canyonlands NP and  Bagstr looses the shift lever bolt!!  Could not believe I did not have an 8mm to solve that. CID to the rescue

Middle of nowhere, flat tire on my buddy's Africa Twin that he "converted to tubeless" tires with some 3M tape.   We tried everything to get it to take some air, but after multiple fails we realized the tape wasn't sealing the spokes anymore.  Guess what my buddy forgot to bring???  A tube!  I decided to try to stretch a 19" tube over a 21" rim.  It works!  Due to poor timing, we ended up riding 1000 miles on that setup until we could get a replacement 21" tube.
