    Definitely not worried about the cool factor!! I got that covered!:rolleyes::D IMG_20171130_202453205.jpg the taller the freight gets the tougher it is to see. But I agree with you..that's why I haven't done it. Not sure the knees and back can take it:eek:

    That works good till winter. Then when you take the bungies off they stay stretched and are too long for the pipe.
    I just tie them in bundles and then cuss getting em undone the next time... IMG_20170816_111942263.jpg

    I did that for a month.
    Then I did the pipe thing for a month.
    Both have down sides.
    @blairandgretchen pointed out that if you pile them up n throw them just inside the last roll on your tarps, you have them accessible when you need them, n protected when you don’t.

    I keep a few loose for the odd time I’m not tarping but need to bungee something.

    The former Meltonian that recruited me to SPD won a really nice enclosed headache rack in a raffle... needless to say I was quite jealous when I ran into him at Arlington a few weeks ago.

    Straight up slick and much more room than my open rack :/
