Comments on: Once more into the breach, dear friends… http://www.dvicci.com/cycling/once-more-into-the-breach-dear-friends Drink wine, and you will sleep well. Sleep, and you will not sin. Avoid sin, and you will be saved. Ergo, drink wine and be saved.

Packing once a week eliminates that, but still gives me the freedom you speak of. The only downside is that I don't have a car both at work and at home, so I'm stuck at work during the day (I'm not a fan of riding in my work clothes... especially in this weather).

I built my bike specifically to do this and love it. I find it gives me the freedom on when I can commute (I can't commute with any regularity do to work requirements and kid running). Something changes that tonight that allows me to commute tomorrow... bingo, bags packed and I am set. Just curious. Why did you not like the panniers route, Method, The First?

You should post some pictures. I used Method, The First and didn't really find it all that inconvenient. I found leaving two pairs of shoes at work (one black, one brown) and keeping a reversible belt in the pannier at all times helped considerably. If I had to carry a laptop or something I might feel differently, though ... I’m glad you got the bike, and you’re back in the saddle. You should post some pictures.

We both find ourselves on steeds anew this fine December morn. I had to opt for the shorter trip this morning as I got almost NO sleep whatsoever last night. Well, that and my "new" ride is really a refurb job and fresh setup on an old bike. Glad to see you in the saddle again. Care to join me this weekend on a long, long ride? Alas, my friend.
