[quote:PENG:MV8xNjQwMDY4XzI3MDg0MzM1X0I1OTU4MDIz] [quote:Anonymous Coward 1482432:MV8xNjQwMDY4XzI3MDg0MjU5X0VCQkIwMUI5] I was going to suggest a bicycle with a tag-a-long carrier that you tow behind ... but 7 hours away is a LONG distance, going through the mountains is TOUGH, and with 3 little ones it is TOUGHER still. If it is one adult and 3 kids ... well ... you are probably shit out of luck. If it is 2 adults though 2 bikes with 2 tag-a-longs should allow you to make 20 to 30 miles a day even in the mountains (on flat land you should be able to make 40 to 50 miles a day if nice weather easy), assuming you can somehow use the expressways. Back roads are more problematic because they are both longer in distance AND more ups and downs. Why no car? In the city and can't have one? ... or can't afford one? A complete rethink on your planning for getting out of your local "Dodge" may be in order. [/quote] No. Only if power grids get knocked out. We had thought of everything except power grids. Duh i know. And cars these days run on electric. [/quote]

Probably a stupid question, and im sure ill be the first to die, but our bug out is several hours away. Is there anything besides a horse?
Edit to add I have 3 little ones coming alOng with us. And we have to go through about 4 hours of appalachian on 75.
