In my time, I've seen all sorts of strange and interesting bicycle accessories. Some of them were designed so that a bike can transport some item or another: I've seen bags, brackets, racks, braze-ons and even frames designed to hold fishing rods, guitars, surfboards, rifles, construction equipment and laptops. I'll bet that someone has found a way to use a bike generator (or even the battery from a light) to power said laptop, or some electronic device.
In my time, I've also seen plenty of cyclists toting six-packs of beer. Most often, they're in baskets, whether on the front or rear, but I've also seen riders carry them in panniers or backpacks (Hey, I've done that myself!) or even dangle them from their fingers.
So, I guess, it was just a matter of time before someone invented something to port their Pilsner or lug their lager. And I probably shouldn't be surprised that the person who came up with this world-changing idea is employed by one of my favorite purveyors of cycling equipment: Velo Orange.
Even Chris himself seems to think as much. He asks whether it's a good or crazy idea. I agree with one person who responded: It would be great if the sides could fold out flat, making the rack usable with, say, handlebar bags or for other purposes.
Now, the tattoo, I'm not so sure about.

My local grocery inTexas only sells beer in 12 packs. Not so in Washington State.
ReplyDeleteSteve-- A 12 pack. Hmm...How would you carry it?
ReplyDeleteSlingin' a six-pack may evoke a sense of casual camaraderie, but in the world of logistics, efficiency and precision are key. At FleetsWorld, we understand the importance of balancing both speed and care when it comes to delivering goods, ensuring that every load reaches its destination safely and on time.
