Bento box!

you know i am thinking of making my own. I just need to find some canvas. But why couldn't I make one. Velcro the thing like the bento box. I just need to find some canvas. I live in a small town with not a lot of stuff like that. and I only need a little bit of it too. So I don't want to order it online. I have to go to a job in Iowa next week maybe they will have a fabric store that has something like that.

Actually, you could just go back and buy the bento box again and buy longer strips of velcro and use them as extensions to fit around both of those tubes shown in the picture. (Kinda like those bra band extender things! :p ) I find it much easier to customize things than make from scratch.

ETA: Here's a visual.

That is hilarious! The guys would get a charge from it.

I was thinking the same thing Dianyla: get Velcro straps and "extend" the existing straps to work on your bike. Of course, that would make the ride a lot more boring than if it was by the seat! ;) Especially if there's an SO involved with helping you look for that snack!
