Megasack Giveaway Day 15: Altura Dirt Bag

by 10

Thursday 21st December: Altura Dirt Bag

This is a waterproof bag for all your gear – put everything in it, loop your helmet through the straps, and know you’ve got everything ready for your ride. Then, after your ride, perform the magic trick of opening the bag out into a changing mat, strip off all your mucky gear, then return it to bag mode with all your filthy kit neatly inside – ready to be put in the car, or carried through the house to the washing machine.

It’s slightly padded in the base – making it more comfortable to stand or sit on. No pokey stones, and away from the cold. The slightly stiffened material of the bag means it holds everything in neatly, without something icky schlumping out the side and spreading filth all over your cream carpet (why did you choose a cream carpet?!).

I came to Singletrack having decided there must be more to life than meetings. I like all bikes, but especially unusual ones. More than bikes, I like what bikes do. I think that they link people and places; that cycling creates a connection between us and our environment; bikes create communities; deliver freedom; bring joy; and improve fitness. They're environmentally friendly and create friendly environments. I try to write about all these things in the hope that others might discover the joy of bikes too.

    I like the idea 👍 but I think £30 tops not £50 but then I’m a tight OAP 🙄

    I like the idea of this, but do you need something to put that in so the underside (and sides) don’t drop their mankyness on the carpets when you get home? It is great holding all the manky clothes in the bag, but if you have chucked it on the ground to allow you to strip off, then the outside of the bag is going to be dirty as well and when that dries it’ll flake off.

    A quiet day in the office for me (it isn’t, but I’m avoiding some work annoyance for 10 minutes!) so I’m clearly letting the random thought generater go wild!

    This is a great idea, but a big flexy plastic bucket from Tesco does a similar job cost me £8 and can be washed or rinsed down easier…

     

    Also – how did either of you not sing “I’m an Alutraaaaa Dirty Bag bayyyybeeeeeeee!”?!?!?!

    I don’t think I would buy this at £50- a foam mat and an IKEA bag or trug bucket is much cheaper and more versatile.

    Does look well executed otherwise.

    @explorerboy Damn it, we missed that opportunity. And damn you, because I’m also now singing ‘he’s an explorer boy, and he wasn’t good enough for heeerrrrr’.

    I think yesterday was me!? Amazing. I’ll get sitting on a bit of tin foil on a carpeted step in anticipation…

    Another useless bit of tat designed to separate the long pressed cyclist from their cash.

    @STW Staff

    If I win, please re-pick, because I’ve no use for such a thing.

    That reminds me of a versatile snap-fastener box I got for a car some years ago. Waterproof, could be flat, tray-like, or a kind of carry box. It had cut outs in the side to pick it up with. Might repurpose it as it’s just holding some junk in the cellar now.

    Nice. Simple. Effective. £50 ain’t what it used to be with that inflation malarkey.

    unsure whether to pass comment but great to see that my SO is not alone in picking warm underclothes.

    Can I just point out that this could be a great picnic bag… folds out to be a wipe clean tabletop.
