CommuterRun, that is an excellent set up for the canoe ...

OP, I too enjoy the outdoors (hunting, fishing, camping, hiking, and if you want to count it ... farm work). I combine the first three with cycling when ever i do them. Carrying the equipment (especially a gun) can be tricky. one option can be found here: http://www.texaselectricbikes.com/ca...rack-p-83.html.

anyway, good luck.
