Ultimate Bike Share Bag 

Due to the web of bike-sharing programs sprouting up across the country, it’s easy to fit a community cycle into your life. But those shared rides rarely make it easy to fit your gear onto their frame. Chicagoan Maria Boustead and her Po Campo company created this weatherproof carrier that not only conforms to the confines of system’s like Citibike and Chicago’s Divvy, but also has enough space to carry a laptop or a six-pack (or, depending on how cool your company is, both).

Currently fundraising on Kickstarter until May 29.
