John Denver forgot to check the fuel level. We were just down Pacific
Grove and were reminded that Denver crashed near there. Was a memorial
bench in the Monarch Butterfly grove.


The story I heard was he had his fuel selector set to reserve the
whole time so when he ran out, he was out with no reserve left to use.
Anyone with an really old VW knows how that works ;-)


Just about every old time motorcyclist has done that.
