Every activity required me to carry different things. I felt like a pack mule taking it all on my bike,\u201d says the founder Kathryn Carlson. \u201eI started thinking \u2026 wouldn\u2019t it be great if I could treat my bike the way everyone treats a car trunk, where you can just toss a gym bag or an extra pair of shoes, no problem?\u201d Kathryn adds.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-131758 size-medium\" src=\"https:\/\/d2p6e6u75xmxt8.cloudfront.net\/2\/2015\/10\/hp-life__derrier-1000x0-c-default-600x400.jpg\" alt=\"Buca Boot secure bike storage, Photo: bucaboot.com\" width=\"600\" height=\"400\" \/><br \/>\n<em>Photo:\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/www.bucaboot.com\/\">www.bucaboot.com<\/a><\/em><\/p>\n<p>Over the last years, she has enlisted various designers and engineers to realize her vision. It\u2019s a secure and flexible bike storage that resembles the common storage boxes usually fixed at the rear part\u00a0of motorbikes or scooters.\u00a0The team worked hard trying to nail the combination of features that make their idea different: security, weather resistance<span style=\"text-decoration: line-through;\">,<\/span> and a flexible lid system.
