These were free from behind the Liquor store,  15 minutes with a sewing machine and VOILA.  Went shopping last weekend with no bags came back with my pockets full, not anymore....

I love free?????

I believe bubby-joe and I may be cut from the same cloth! Not cheap, just sorta frugal by using found objects for alternative purposes. Kinda "green", actually.

Only one question, bubby. What were you doing behind that liquor store? Dumpster diving? Rolling the local winos? Leaving work? ;D

I use a soft side cooler bag inside my soft saddle bags. Carry ice and a selection of adult beverages quite nicely. Wonder how this might fit into the Texas Open Container law... [smiley=beer.gif]

Waking up

There's a small curios shop behind the liquor store spoted them on the way in and picked them up on the way out still had the tags on them...

Don't think I have to worry about Texas I'm only 90 miles from Alaska as the crow flies... 4 degree's F and 350 miles with no electric clothes but what a blast.  First run this year...earliest ever.

OK i`ll be the voice of inquisition. Have you tried them with weight in them yet. Just wondering how durable the material will actually be once your on the rode and its jiggling about. Apart from that they look good.
