I need a bag for my bike
09/22/08 at 14:59:12
 
So I am going on a 5 hour ride down the university i graduated from and am in need of a bag for my stuff. I would normally just use my backpack but i'll be packing for 3-4 days, possibly including a suit. I know no bag will allow me to pack the suit really well, but something bigger than a backpack would definitely help.
I don't really like saddlebags, so I was thinking a rear bag on the back seat would work well. Here's the one I found so far:

Any comments?

Go to Wal-mart and get you a duffel bag and strap it to the seat. That's all that is in the link you provided and cheaper too.

How do I strap it? Just with a bunch of bungie cords? Do they attach to any part in particular down there, each other, or what?

Yeah, just use some bungee cords and strap them to the fender side rails in a criss cross pattern over the bag. I have done it many times.

If you have a little time before you go,do like I do,mail your stuff to whomever you are staying with,last july I mailed my daughter some dress shirts and a suit for her court appearance,she had the suit dry cleaned before I got there.
PS, she won her appeal.
