When going on a long run, such as perhaps during Memorial Day weekend, you could find yourself needing a bit more "go juice" in between gas stations.
One possibly remedy is something such as the MSR Fuel Bottle, which can be had for anywhere between $15 - $20 depending on size and where you purchase it at. Generally used for camping stoves, you should be able to find them at a camping supply store or even online at retailers such as Amazon or Outdoor Play. There are other brands to choose from as well.
And what do you do with said fuel bottle now that you have it? Fill it with your favorite high octane fuel of course and find some way to strap it to your death machine. I recommend putting it in a place where it won't take a stray bullet in case you are in a shootout.
One fancy way of putting it on your bike is to use a cool custom leather harness, such as those made by one of the several leather smiths out there on the internet. Alternatively, you could try your hand at making it yourself, as demonstrated on this Chop Cult post by 52rigid.
Here's a picture of a La Rosa saddle bag with a fuel bottle holder already installed.
Now please, try your best not to get stranded.
