Three weeks of monsoon and no end in sight...



So my teaching materials got wet for the last time. I dare even monsoon rain to get into my airtight plastic box...

10kg limit. That has to weigh less than 4kg so I still have capacity for 6kg of books etc. Tested on a 200km ride. Zero problems. Doesn't affect the feel of the bike at all.

After three weeks of monsoons I was expecting maybe a bike with pontoons and a few animals parked on it!

Stay safe!

I was considering it. The watertight box would offer a lot of flotation I'd bet.
