On My way to Home Depot!

Done, the only addition I made was tie wrap support between the 2 side to stop a bit of flex when both bags are on the rack.
It works great!

For the guys with stock bags, go to Lowes, or Home Depot, and buy some stick-on clear rubber bumpon round or square will work, they are clear, I stuck 4 to the bottom of each bag , then you can plop your bags on the floor ,or almost anywhere, and it isn't something else to take up room in the garage.

How is that at speed? Say 75?
Looks like it would vibrate.
