I generally have a change of cloths and a towel in the Sackville Shopsack I'm using on the front. It rides fine, and I love the convenience of the basket for various oversized spur of the moment items. The big issue I have with wheel flop is when I'm parked at an intersection I have to pay more attention lest the bars flop over into an unfortunate part of the anatomy. Another good reason for downtube shifters - the bar ends are more blunt and a tiny bit lighter :)
