Do you suffer from the dreaded biker hot butt syndrome in the summer time?
You are riding along, knees in the breeze, it's all good. Quick stop and you're off the bike, it's parked in the sun, but you'll be right back out of Walmart in the time it takes to go check the $5 DVD bin....what could go wrong?
Back on the bike and your butt is burnin'! Worst of all, your significant other is suffering her baby cakes to be burnt and now nobody is happy.....
Shopping for a solution, the internet is awesome, there are $50 dollar solutions and custom made brand specific hundred dollar solutions to be had.
But, if you understand what Cousin Eddie meant when he told Clark Griswold that the burnt chair was a quality item.... you don't mind a little home grown remedy to solve your troubles. After all, this is the age of knowing how to get things done (or so the commercial tells us).
Here's an inexpensive solution for your burning bagger bottom blues....
Find one of those folding spring loaded car shades, the kind with both halves connected and it twists back on itself for storage. You can spend $5 to $15 on them, shop carefully. I had one left over somehow.
Go get a package of 4 tarp clips, the kind that clamp on the edge of a tarp and leave a spot for a bungee cord to pass through. $3 today at Harbor Freight, on deal from $5.
Procure four bungees, I used the little guys with the adjustable lengths and ball on one end. Bungees by the bag, $5-$10...
Assemble the tarp clips at each of the four corners, clip the teeth on so they are grabbing just inside the spring coil outline of the sun shade so they don't pull off.
String your bungees to suit, and hang the whole contraption on the bagger of your dreams. No more hot butt and you're $30-$80 closer to your next insurance payment. Not to mention your significant others' cool baby cakes comfort, you, my friend, will be a regular rock star!
