First, I just wanted to say that I'm so glad your daughter is safe and wasn't injured in the storm.
In '96 a devastating tornado hit a nearby town and demolished most of the homes and getting around by bike was optimal because of the debris littering the streets. In Vilonia, AR, a tornado hit and ripped up the asphalt of the streets so having an ATV or mtb would be to your advantage. Having a bike with Stan's is my choice set up as there is so much that can puncture car tires, much less bike tires. Emergency and relief workers often carry Fix A Flat for their vehicles when emergency transportation is critical. Tornados are scary and I hope you never have to experience it first hand.
