So... I just come prepared for everything. It's easier than trying to find someone willing to help a cyclist in need, apparently. I don't ever want to find myself in a situation where I'm forced to walk 15 miles home again (happened 6 years ago, noone wanted to help, I gave up cycling for 6 years due to that).
Do the buses there have bike racks on them? The ones here do...our buses don't really go anywhere useful or in a timely manner, but worse case you could hop on a bus and get a few miles closer to home.
