A Sam Hill with big, boxy Axiom Panniers and a big, boxy Ostrich bag is a barn door in our spring winds. I just rode 8 miles in the hooks straight south into a southerly "28 g 35". This builds patience and strength of character.
The Axioms -- half price at AE Bike, $44 -- are big, drape-over Dutch-style shopping panniers, just one big empty space on each side with no annoying side pockets, zippers, compartments or cinches: just good old fashioned emptiness, big enough with room to spare for a full paper grocery sack, each; and a fitted flap with two, simple fastek buckles. I'll take photos when I get the attachments for my new Canon. Probably not up to touring, but better than my Ortleib Packers for shopping. Oh, and big bar bags act like wind rudders in gusty sidewinds; keep a firm grip on your bar! -- Patrick Moore Albuquerque, NM For professional resumes, contact Patrick Moore, ACRW at resumespecialt...@gmail.com (505) 227-0523 -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.
