Try this thread -viewtopic.php?f=13&t=11388 I think the original post got lost when he asked for his account to be removed.

Excellent thanks, Regs interpretation was more ridiculous than I could have hoped for. I think I will stick with what I have.

" I think I will stick with what I have." - blast, another nail in the coffin of my fortune-making enterprise :cry: . Probably a wise move though Tim :wink: .

That seatpacks not far off what mine sometimes has looked like with the 1kg down sleeping bag stuffed in the Ortlieb 17L saddlebag :grin: ... It is a road bike and I think finally beginning to understand why roadies used to give me an alarmed look (then continue to ignore my "Mawwrning") whilst I'd travel to work with it stuffed with my uniform and other important gear.

:smile: :sad: :lol:

Did I tell you about the time this miserable young chappy (maybe in his 25s or 30s) rode past me in his Ra*ha hardshell jacket. I also had mine on (with said bikepacking bag aswell as a framebag) with a couple of other Ra*ha memorabilia. Anyway, said young chap ignored me and continued to concentrate on road. So I chased him down and then slowly overtook and then continued to (try and) zoom off into the distance. Doesn't happen often mindyou*

I also once got overtaken by a young lass in an aerobars clad bike. Nice lady who said hi and I commenced to try and keep up. Almost had a cardiac event and afterwards on Strava realised she was part of some (or other) TT club locally around them there ends (similar lanes... she was fassstttt
