Bicycle + Gear = Shuttle Pack

The inspiration to create the Original Shuttle Pack occurred during one of our frequent camping and biking trips. Desperate to free up some much coveted interior space we struggled with a car top cargo carrier we had purchased. We tried to modify it to work with the bikes in place. Despite our best efforts, it was an either/or proposition. After leaving some of our less essential (but sorely missed) gear behind, we headed off with the discomfort of having gear in every nook and cranny of our car's interior. Trust me, after a couple hours, a bicycle helmet doesn't make for a very comfortable armrest.

On the return trip, I couldn't help noticing the large number of cramped cars with bikes on top, returning from their weekend exodus.  I also noticed that they all had plenty of outer space that could be filled with cargo. That's the moment I had an epiphany. After working through several iterations, the Original Shuttle Pack™ became a reality. And the mission to put gear into outer space was accomplished.
