  1. I plan to commute to work on a 52cm road bike, with a
    Blowfish 'bak to hold my work clothes. I'll have to chain my
    bike outside and I want to cover it to protect it from the
    sun. Any recomms for one that is light enough to fold and
    fit in my 'bak along with my clothes, but strong enough so
    it doesn't tear easily?

  2. Some stores sell a bicycle bag. Like to put bike in for
    Chirstmas and under the tree.

    Can you get some Tyvek from a home store, add some duct tape
    or your favorite fastener, and roll your own?

    I've never done it, but it sounds simple enough. Dumb ideas
    usually sound pretty simple.

    C'mon, I want it to look cool too! 🙂 I'll probably do this
    if I can't find a satisfactory off-the-shelf solution.

    If you want to look cool, the last thing you need is a
    bicycle cover. Ok, well maybe a raincape would be slightly
    less cool.
