    I find the "roll it up and put it into a knee-high stocking interesting. First because that is precisely what "Scotty" Thompson said to do in his book So you are going to wear the Kilt and what the enlisted men in the Navy have been doing for centuries with their dress uniforms, (just a slightly different process, but the same theory) which is to turn the uniform inside out, fold it lengthwise and then roll it up and stuff it into the sea bag.

    Great time to visit Bisbee; should be nice Fall colors in the Mule Mtns.

    This is how I "roll" when I'm biking a kilt...
    (Ready for my daily 8+ mi. ride to work.)



    The cylindrical object just behind the seat on top of the brief case is my "Kilt Roll" kilt karrier that I got from these folks.

    I've used it extensively for over 3 years & it's still goin' strong & the fact that it's water resistant is a real plus when I get caught in a monsoon storm. Shoulder strap or handle make it a breeze to carry.

    If you're only going to be gone for the weekend, PM me. I live just a little west of MetroCenter & I'd be willing to let you borrow it.

    I've used the roll it up and stuff it in a pantyhose tube method a few times and it works very well. I'd like to get a Kilt-Roll, maybe Santa will bring me one this Christmas.

    They have two kilt rolls listed; one was made of nylon, the other was made of canvas. Which one did you purchase?

    I was just putting around the block so I could say that I have. ATGATT is wise. I don't do it, but it is wise.
    Did you find a kilt roll that you liked? So far I have taken a kilt with me while riding twice. Both times I just rolled it up, put it in a bag and threw it in the saddlebag, but I wasn't packing a whole bunch of stuff. Just what I needed to change into at an event.
