Tips: Tied Down - Dirt Rider Magazine

Karel Kramer

Bulky or potentially leaky stuff that won't fit in my toolbox gets to the track in a plastic storage container with a removable lid. This container has handholds molded in on either end to make it easy to carry. After having a lid vanish on the way to the track, I drilled a small hole through the top edge of the lid and the carrying handle on one side of the container. I loop a couple of large plastic zip-ties through the holes, but I just don't pull it tight. That way I can easily lift the lid, but it stays attached to the container at freeway speeds.Got a Trail Tip? Send it and some pictures to karel.kramer@sorc.com, subject: Trail Tips.
