This was my first year of brevet riding. I did 10 200k brevets and one 300k and a few 100k populaire permanents as training rides. I did all of them with just a medium sized traditional handlebar bag with decaleur, on either my A. Homer Hilsen or my Davidson go fast. That worked awesome, but it was California, so the quantity of clothes I had to carry was modest. This last brevet did involve rain jacket and pants, extra socks and gloves, and the bag was full. For the longer brevets I intend to expand out to in 2012, I've got a Nitto top rack and the associated Sackville Trunksack

Very affordable entry into handlebar bags -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.
