and all of them can carry enough gasoline to cover 1000 miles without stopping. Some can manage twice that. Some can average 100 mph when there's no cops to worry about, too. Think about what that means. No place in the lower 48 states. is out of reach of millions of people, with just one night's ride and maybe one night's hike. You're not nearly as "remote" as you think you are. Google also says 15-20 million bicycles are sold in the US EVERY YEAR. So there's 100 million of them around, A lot of them are sized for little kids, of course, But the US, all 3200 miiles of it, has been crossed in 8 days on a bicycle, by a number of people. With a gel seat cover, anyone can, in a week or 2, get hardened in to pedal 100 miles per night, on relatively flat terrain. For $40 each, you can get solid rubber tires, so a flat is never an issue, either. Millions of people can reach you in a week or 2 and they WILL be trying to do so, too, if shtf.
