The country is down to 25 days of diesel supply with stockpiles at their lowest level for this time of year in records going back to 1993. In the Northeast, where more people burn fuel for home heating than anywhere else in the country, inventories are a third of their typical levels heading into winter. National Economic Council Director Brian Deese called the levels “unacceptably low.” By late October, diesel prices had risen for more than two weeks to 50% above where they were a year ago.
 
Yeah and there will be no night runs, because we won't be able to charge our batteries with our portable solar panels at night!

I'm sure we can rig the charger to an exercise bike. Wonder how long you have to pedal to charge the battery enough for a 100 mile run...

Look around, the rest of us didn’t attend the academy. In a lifetime, we couldn’t pedal vigorously enough to generate the mileage of a single tank of diesel fuel.

There’s no such thing as a free lunch.
