So what's a bodge?
Bodging it - we've all done it, so admit it! 
Sometimes you just have to get it going, no matter what -with or without the "right" tools, parts etc. A little ingenuity can go a long way when you're stuck at the side of the road.
On my bike I always carry duct tape, stainless steel wire, a bunch of long and short zip ties, a few misc long bolts and matching nuts, a film can of thick grease, and a pair of vise grips. On long trips or into remote areas I add a foot long strip of 1" x 1/8" (30cm x 25mm x 3mm) aluminum, a hacksaw blade, and a 6mm drill bit. With that lot it's amazing what you can do!
Kevan Ibbotson, also know as "dirtpig" is our Master Bodger / Moderator, and he has loads of stories - I've even seen him at work, bodging it with flair!
Let's see your story of how you "got it going" by inspiration and ingenuity! Best bodge of the year gets an HU Fleece Jacket!
