So it's not what most people think of as a gas-tank, but it sits on the top tube of your bicycle (like a motorcycle gas tank) and is usually filled with food (fuel). Inspired by the Gas Tanks of Epic Designs http://www.epicdesignsalaska.com/.
I spent nearly all day yesterday sewing a gas-tank for my bike by hand. It would have been a lot easier with a machine, but why not do things the hard way once in a while.The project cost about 25 cents in materials thanks to the Eureka Camping Center in Binghamton selling tent rain flys for $3, and some garbage picking for the plastic mesh that gives the tank it's structure. It seems functional, but someday when I have the motivation I'd like to re-work it to have a dual zip opening, and some more robust fabric.
