Beachrights question got me thinking about the vehicles I seen at SOBB a few weeks ago and the ones that showed up at NABX this year.
What does your trunk look like? (I dont have a trunk, and the wifes car is off limits)
What does the back of your truck look like? (It is full to the top of the canopy, I think I have a bed liner under everything but not
sure.)
What does the back of your bike look like? (I took 5 kites and a buggy with me on a trip to Reno one year and stopped at a few dry
lake beds on the way and a few very large fields in Oregon to buggy. Everything fit into the trailer that I towed behind my GL1800.)
What does your ride look like?
This is about the kite stuff inside, not the outside, unless you put all your kite stuff on the outside.
Take a picture so we can see how messy or overwhelming the stuff is.:o Best picture wins the title of "Best Kite Stuff Ride"
here is mine.

How about some video? Eli has some video of the two of us packing and repacking (4 times) the S-10 I drove to NABX this year. Was amazing that we
got 2-hardcore buggies, 20+ kites, helemets, body armor, video and camera gear, one 10'x10' tent, two sleeping bags, pillows, clothes, medical gear,
and 3 coolers into/on to that little truck.

You didnt get all of your stuff in the back of your truck, I think I had to stop off in Newport to drop something off. HMMMMM, think it had 3 wheels
and some playa dust on it.

That would have been 3 full size race buggies on that tiny s-10, which was overloaded to begin with!

I bought the kite shed thinking I would keep things more tidy and in better shape , easier to find. BOY WAS I WRONG ! I think there is a hole in the
back that everything I happen to be looking for falls into?
Living inner city the car gets emptied but I am so tired when I get home everything just gets tossed into the shack. I'll have to get a picture .

Well this pic was my ride to NABX and looked like this for basically the past month. DAY SHIFT RULES. Get off work... go kiting.

BB, I more or less keep the bed full of kite stuff most of the time, unless we are taking the motorhome.(thats another story itself, sure glad it has
a ladder up to the roof, cause the basement is more than full) My truck is a quad cab, the back seat hold all kinds of other stuff.:eekdrull:

This was my ute ute loaded up and ready to go to a week long kite meet last year. 12hr drive, but probably one of the best beaches in australia.
2x Buggies
1x Landboard
2x Toolboxs full of kites and gear
1x Eski full of beer

Here's my car on a typical day.
Add toothbrush and clean socks and I'm ready for WBB :wee:

My trunk is always ready for many conditions but no groceries. 9 kites, harness, helmets, pads, 2 sand bottles. The rides (Coyotes and/or landboard,
snow blades) occupy the back seat except in winter I have to make room in the trunk to fit the downhill skis into the ski sock.
