I had to choose between a 15-minute shortcut through a dark park or adding 10 minutes to my route on the main road.

I picked the park for a week to save time, but on Wednesday night my front light died halfway through and I had to walk my bike out. It was pitch black and really spooky. Has anyone else had a close call that made them change their route for good?

Serious question, what's your go-to method for chasing a stubborn intermittent fault?

Last month on a King Air in Billings, I spent two full days on a VHF comm that would drop out only above 10,000 feet. I finally found a cracked coax shield under the insulation by using a signal generator and a borrowed spectrum analyzer. What's your first move when the fault won't show up on the ground?
