Default Carrying a Cane.

I have been having to use my cane more frequently as of late. Bare Soft tail FX springier with flat bars. Looking for ideas from any of you that carry a cane. I’m thinking about attaching a piece of PVC pipe to the rigid fork using a couple of hose clamps and just sticking my stick in it but would like hear from anyone that carries one. I would prefer not putting it on the bars since I have a leather tool bag there now.

How about one that will fold ? Over the years we made straps and various other things for this situation ,and the ones that fold seem to travel best ..

My sister used to have a spring clamp like this on her bicycle to transport her field hockey stick to school.

That's what one of my Brothers has. He attached it to his forks. Works great!

My wife has a prosthetic leg. We carry a folding collapsible cane for her. While this isn't the same one we have, it's similar.

A cane shouldn't be too hard to accommodate. This 80 year old man brought his walker.
