I like that tarp you have over the picnic table---can you please tell me the name and size ?---thanks
The Rok Straps are there. The cargo net is mostly to keep things from flapping around. It also gives me a handy place to stuff gloves, skull/baseball caps, etc if I need to take a pic or something. I'll put my camping towel over my "stuff" but under the web net on a sunny/warm days to let it dry the first 30 miles or so before I repack it.Replace cargo net/s with ROK Straps. You'll be glad you did.
I was looking at the picture trying to figure out what you had mount to the nose of the bikeThis was my "camping bike" last month. Thanks to this forum for suggesting Rok Straps. I connected the straps to the tipover bars and back to the two downward facing "hooks" under the top rack. I knew they were there for a reason. In regards to camping gear, I need to upgrade the yoga mat and get something much more comfortable. I decided to buy another set of Rok straps to have a spare.
