Just something stupid looking with two guys riding in a GP car as viewed from the rear. It's just not right.

It's like sharing a single bed.

I agree . 2 big guys in a GP looks like a joke . But not everybody has the money for a big Bugatti .

I open a new thread on the subject of driving a GP car with two people in it.
More fun than ''Side Mount Bags'' which means to me - a passenger !

Caroline Bugatti now markets a series of round bags, the size of the wheel, which can be easily attached to a matching spare wheel cover.

I will likely just use a regular backpack but where can I see Caroline's products?

Yes, I saw one at the Mullin museum.

See below, the bag can be detached from the spare wheel cover. It is quite a bit bigger than a regular backpack, so can hold more Luggage. Furthermore it is 100% waterproof.

Dear Forum,
Noramlly the side bag are from the Swiss Army backpack , but they are hard to find now.
Some people use the Canadian Army backpack too ..

Regards,

Lykos
PS: the first picture with the line of Bugatti is from the 2014 Mille Miglia, not easy to do it without copilot ...

Found this in an army / navy surplus store in Provincetown, MA......$20.

Seems to be perfect. A little cumbersome to open and close, but its big and looks right.

Thanks for the ebay link Udo - they had some nice ones up there too.
