Re: [RCSE] Thule
Al, Yeah, but is that the "elitist" way to go ? Mine looks way cool. In fact I have considered the following options: 1) 2 pairs of slippers, the middle pair facing down, the outside pair facing up. 2) A shark's dorsal fin top middle, with a tail and pectorial fins... in grey. 3) A short pair of wings, and a vertical tail, like a cruise missile. 4) A large sign "STINGER MISSILE CONTAINER" 5) A pair of hands and feet like from a manikin stuck out the sides. Alas, my composure allowed none, and I have placed a few Ti Leaves (like the leis), streaming off the end for good luck. Aloha, Tom --- "Albert E.

Re: Re: [RCSE] Thule
When you see how many wings and fuselages a Thule will carry along with a sun tent, etc., and how easy the access to all your stuff is, most will happily pay for the space and convenience. With a Thule you can stuff it full of finely crafted Baglady Bags and enjoy a great day of flying! > > From: "Albert E.

Re: [RCSE] Thule
Hi All I hate to be the cheep one here but.. $ 400.00 carrier OUTRAGIOUS why not pick up a piece of 20" Low Head PVE pipe and two 20" end caps then throw in two Thredded "U" Bolts w/ nuts & washers your done I bet that's under $50.00 bucks. Just my two cents Cheers AL The Old Bag Lady 530-343-1715 - Original Message - From: "Tom Nakagawa" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Saturday, March 06, 2004 4:42 PM Subject: [RCSE] Thule > Rick, >I purchased a Thule cartop ski carrier a year ago > at REI.
