Title: This is a good idea for camping and riding
Post by: MadMudder on April 15, 2005, 07:56:43 PM
Hey, i'm not a ladie but this is a good idea for yall. If you ever go camping and riding and want a hot shower then this is a good idea. When i say camping i mean with a tent and a fire for cooking. NOT a 35ft camper that is a mini house. (they are nice though ::)) Anyway i got this idea from a magizine. You get a really big bladder or something like that. Not sure where you find those at but anyway, fill it full of water before a trip and strap it on to your quad and ride as normal. After the day's ride the bladder thingy will be warm from the engine heat. Tie it between two trees and another piece of string to the thingy. While all the men are in a river taking a hillbilly bath you have a hot shower. Not sure exaticly the detalis but it is good for an expirment. In case you are wondering what magizine, it is a letter from an old dirt wheels issue. ;)

Yeah! West Marine sells them for about 20.00 all ready to go  ;) Solar Sun Showers, I have seen them online for about 11-14.00 $ Cabelas, Bass Pro etc.  Just throw them up on the truck to heat up, good to go.

Dont buy them from a marine store. Walmart sells them for really cheap! We use it to wash of our hands and face!

Coleman makes a nice hot water heater.  I had another unit for my portable shower but it wasn't set up well.  I've got the whole shower thing covered.

We have a 40 gallon water tank that sits in the back of the truck and heats up,  ;D we have a wash down pump hooked up to it and a hose...works awesome ;)
