Towel Device for Spin Biking

Abstract

A towel device for spin biking made from towel material that is sewed with two tunnel-like regions that slip over the bike's handle bars. The left and right sides of the device descend downward from the left and right handle bars and include pockets for cellphones, ID cards and the like. The device is easily manufactured, easily put on the bike and removed, and totally washable just as a towel. Because it is typically towel material, it can also be used directly as a towel for wiping face and body.

         1 . A spin bike accessory comprising:
 a generally rectangular cloth member sewed with a two lateral seams forming a pair of tunnel-like loops adapted to allow insertion of a spin bike's handle bars into the tunnel-like loops so that said member can hang on the handlebars in a hanging configuration;   wherein, in said hanging configuration, the member has a relatively flat central portion between the handlebars and two outer descending portions outside of said handlebars, and   wherein, said outer descending portions include one or more sewed-on exterior pockets.   
     
     
         2 . The spin bike accessory of  claim 1  wherein said cloth member is towel material. 
     
     
         3 . The spin bike accessory of  claim 1  wherein said flat central portion and each of said descending portions are approximately equal sized. 
     
     
         4 . The spin bike accessory of  claim 1  wherein there are four sewed-on exterior pockets. 
     
     
         5 . The spin bike accessory of  claim 1  wherein said cloth member has a width approximately equal to each handle bars' length. 
     
     
         6 . The spin bike accessory of  claim 1  wherein the flat central portion has a length approximately equal to said handle bars' separation. 
     
     
         7 . The spin bike accessory of  claim 1  wherein said member has a folded configuration and can be folded for storage. 
     
     
         8 . A method of creating a spin bike accessory comprising:
 cutting an approximately rectangular piece of cloth;   sewing a pair of tunnel-like loops into said piece using two lateral seams at approximately ⅓ and ⅔ length forming a central section and two end sections;   sewing a seam around said piece;   sewing a plurality of pockets on at least one of said end sections.   
     
     
         9 . The method of  claim 8  wherein said cloth is towel material. 
     
     
         10 . The method of  claim 9  including sewing two pockets on each of said end sections. 
     
     
         11 . A spin bike accessory comprising:
 a generally rectangular cloth member of towel material sewed with a two lateral seams forming a pair of loops adapted to allow insertion of a spin bike's handle bars into the loops so that said member can hang on the handlebars in a hanging configuration;   wherein, in said hanging configuration, the member has a relatively flat central portion between the handlebars and two outer descending portions outside of said handlebars;   wherein, said outer descending portions include a plurality of sewed-on exterior pockets; and,   wherein said flat central portion and each of said descending portions are approximately equal sized.   
     
     
         12 . The spin bike accessory of  claim 11  wherein said cloth member has a width approximately equal to each handle bars' length. 
     
     
         13 . The spin bike accessory of  claim 11  wherein the flat central portion has a length approximately equal to said handle bars' separation. 
     
     
         14 . The spin bike accessory of  claim 11  wherein there are four sewed-on exterior pockets. 
     
     
         15 . The spin bike accessory of  claim 11  wherein said member has a folded configuration and can be folded for storage.
