Some kind of longish tube that you could wear diagonally down your back with them sticking out to the side of your head?

I seem to remember stinkwheel or someone posting some pictures of carrying long things on a bike...

I remember G adapted his CCM to carry crutches. Laughing

There was a thread a while back about carrying long-ass things to the bike. Someone had a scythe or something?

It was a spear....

Strap them down the side of the bike under your leg.

Where's G? His photo is missing from the Spear link and I've been thinking about strapping skis to the Zed for a Scotland trip in the New Year!

Most awkward thing I've carried is a pick axe!!!

Sorry, my photos have the deads Crying or Very sad.

Anyway, in the case of skis I had some hard panniers on my KTM (trail tyres with 10psi in help with the snow Smile ), so I had them on top of the panniers either side of my legs coming forwards.

For the crutches on the CCM I made up some carriers from plastic drain (which was a perfect size) which I connected to the pillion peg and the rear rack

Ah you see that is where a cruiser comes in handy, cable tie one to each side of the sissy bar like whip ariels. Very Happy

I've rode several times with guns strapped to my back, rods must be similar. A word of warning though, nigh on impossible on a sportsbike with separate seats; a naked with a single rider & pillion seat is easy enough though.
