So it is a beautiful Spring day out here…been doing lots of job applications and trying to refine my bicycle rig for more grocery capacity/hunting/camping…and doing a bit of art painting…. bike so far has the following items lashed/rigged onto it;
two packed Medium ALICE packs on ALICE frames (frames are “flipped” so that smooth side is against the bike rack)
one USGI 9 strap compression sack loaded with tent, sleep bag, sleep pad, rope, stakes, poles
gun scabbard (Vism Shooting gear?) holding a hunting rifle and a medic pouch on outside
small “ALICE” styled bag up front, two medic pockets behind, and two 2-qt canteens in USMC pouches;

medium packs and gun scabbard on w first aid kit
