The Rock Sack

Listen to music while biking, playing.

Took objects from drug store, created a specialty back pack with a rockin' stereo. It has a radio, subwoofer, PA system, mp3 player, and 20-50 watts of power. It will rock hard. The inner tube arm straps are from a bicycle. They let the bag bounce smoothly on bumps instead of jerking, they also don't absorb sweat, thus don't stink after hot bike rides. The mesh backing keeps the pack off of you and keeps your back dry. See link for demo:

       If somebody rode past my house blaring one of these, I'd put a bullet through their front tire and laugh hysterically as they soared over their handlebars. I don't mean to rant, and I don't mean anything personal against you, haikunik, but I refuse to accept that there is any justification for subjecting everyone else to your favorite music. Why do you need something this loud for a bicycle? Get a stereo Bluetooth headset if you want to listen to your music in high fidelity. It's illegal to ride with both ears covered in many places, but so is disturbing the peace, and the headset is less likely to attract the attention of a police officer. Fishbone [-]

       might be useful as a warning device for overtaking people on combined bicycle/walking trails... and only good as long you know that the people who will be overtaking you are wearing a much louder one.   

       But as far as using it while riding on the street: you entering the Darwin Awards competition ?
