  o.k. so i looked at the map once. took a ride out to fort peck resevior because it didn't look like it was too far out of the way. what i didn't do though was go through the town of fort peck and instead just kept going around the damn area. before i realized what i was doing i had 90 miles on my tank. i'm on a narrow two lane with no pull outs to stop and look at my map so i just keep on going....it was a beautiful ride & the weather was great....and i saw the sign that said junction 200 was on 30 miles away. what i didn't realize was that gas was 60 miles away. as i log 125 miles on this tank i am in the middle of passing a semi and my bike chugs....CRAP!!!
i realize i still have reserve left and luckily for me i've been trying to remember to shut my gas off every evening so i have a good grasp on where my reserve is located....so i reach down....hoping i can do this in motion because i'm on a narrow two lane with a semi on my tail & one hill after another. took me about two tries....but SUCCESS!!! in the future i'll try not to let this happen.
