My partner: “Do you want me to drive to the HW store to pickup the curtain rod?” Me: “Nah, I can get it on my way home”

      Yeah, I love my pannier bags. However I have a fold out basket on the other side of the rack that I generally use for groceries if I am stopping after work for just a single bags worth. Its grant. It’s the ideal size for a standard paper grocery bag, which is the same size as our reusable bags.

    I saw a guy on a bike carrying a large fan once. Kinda like yours. I wrote a little song about it and never forgot it. (This was like thirty years ago lol)

    He’s riding down the road on his bicycle
    He’s got a big white stand up fan
    He’s trying to cool off
    But it ain’t plugged in
    He’s riding down the road on his bike

      If you liked this for the Olympics, what do you think of this?

      I have very big shoes, and this box had two pairs (each in their own box). I picked it up at my local PO box.

      I appreciate you! I’m working on it. I’ve been working in losing weight and strengthening, and biking 8km each way to work every day is definitely helping that.

      However, recently I saw someone who I’m sure has quads of, I don’t even know what. There’s a local ice cream stand in my area I’ve seen before, that I assumed was towed by a car. Nope, saw the person towing it behind a bike the other day. It was an analog bike too.

    the fact that it went in the pannier rather than on the rack, despite being one of the exact shapes racks are specifically designed for, hurts

      You are 100% right. However, I had forgotten my cargo net / straps at home in my other pannier bag. So I had to improvise. What would you have me do, not get the cargo?
