Full Version: Soft cooler for Djangos trip

Went with spouse to Cosco yesterday and walked out with a $15.00 soft sided cooler for the bike to use in southern Utah with Django. Holds 16 cans and a couple of sandwiches if you max out the space. Hard interior plastic liner molded with recesses for cans to max space. Then between the exterior softside and the plastic liner is some reflective aluminum/silver coated material for insulation. Definitely not up to Yeti standards but more than adequate for what I have in mind for it. Plan is to bungie it to the top box behind me on the seat with 10 cans, a reusable frozen hard pack and maybe some cheese and lunch meats in there for on the side of the road snacking to supplement the usual stuff like Jerky and so forth. Just the right size for our daily needs. First day in the 90's I've seen in southern Utah is forecasted to be Thursday (90 degrees on the dot). Temps can range from about low 60's (early AM) to mid 90's (late afternoon) during that time of year while riding.

How it will sit on the seat:

Removable plastic tray sits inside on top:

8 cans on the bottom. I'll lay 2-4 more across top of those:

Frozen reusable ice pack on top of the cans and tray back in place.:

That cooler looks the business

Good recall NRTM, but it's not nearly so well insulated! Beer
