Hi all, I am a new member here, so I thought I'd post some of the things made for my bike. It sees mainly messenger and hauler duties as much is accessible close to where I live.
I got tired of trying to re-do any commercially available rear racks, so I just made one:

It was made from a waiting room chair that was discarded. You can see it before installation in that last picture (and a trailer that is mostly complete) You can see other raw materials, hockey nets and other stuff that was all tossed out on garbage day. That rack involved welding, but could be put together with a few sheet metal screws if anyone is interested in that approach. My bike, a Canadian Tire SUPERCYCLE was another garbage find at a neighbour's a few years back, and it is my Fav. it just rolls along forever.
