Please tell me the rubber bands are an April Fools joke... I'm not so sure now.
Milk crate wouldn't be a bad idea for those times you need to carry something. Not having a car, I could find that useful, but I'd use something like this.

I've got a rear rack and with a bungee net I can get by fine most the time.
Right on! I can't tell you how many times I've thought about bungee cording a milk crate to my rear rack to complete the 70's look!
Sure beats a couple of bungee cords across the seat - lost more than a couple bottles of booze that way.
Man, I don't know how to break it to you guys, but the milk crate, the rubber bands, everything, it's all due to being April 1st. I had a good laugh, hope you all do too, but I figured I better nip this in the bud before people starting strapping milk crates to their bikes.
Awesome joke! ROFL
The outboard zinc on the fender would have good today too...

Lol, try taking a shower, washes lame hoaxes away like nobody's business!
Immediately after closing my first post I realized what day it was haha... You definitely got me. That said, I wouldn't hesitate to strap a milk crate on my bike for a grocery run. Not having a car, that's not a bad idea!

Must've got you before you had your coffee. I've got another bike I use as a pack mule, but yeah, I can see a milk crate being handy on a bike. Just don't use rubber bands to hold it on!

You too huh. I used a milk crate on my SL-125 & SL-175 back in the day. My younger brothers learned to ride on the SL-125 in North Dakota & my pregnant wife learned on the SL-175 in Detroit MI. Same color as yours. Those were two great bikes.
