    it would be cool if the tips included pics, for dummies like me and to keep it interesting.

    The Kinedyne bungees I've been buying come that way, too. Saves a lot of tarp damage when you're giving them to guys that won't crimp them themselves.

    To op good idea i might say d ring one side only, as for storage i like to use bungees with open s hooks, just pull the hooks out put em in a little box and the straps in a bigger box. A few extra min's not spilling the box to free 2 straps is worth it

    Nice idea here! I like to bundle up mine in 15 per and then hang them from the header rack. Then I put one bungee around the whole lot to minimize the flapping in the wind. Helps to reduce the untangling when I need to use them.

    Oscar: Sorry if I sounded grippy. Sometimes I don't realize how things sound in typing it. I'll try to pay more attention to my posts.

    No problem, I didn't take it as anything other than a simple statement.
