I just saw that Ron has a new bag coming out in January. You can see it here (http://www.acornbags.com/). I have two of his bags and love them.

They only accept new orders on the first of each month- you have to act fast that day.
They are still a husband/wife team making all the bags themselves, so at least at this point in time they have to limit the orders they take.
The bags have very good reviews and are relatively cheap compared to some other canvas/leather bags on the market today. I'm sure their business will continue to grow. Nice to see an American-made cottage-industry bike bag of such high quality getting made and recognized.

I wasn't sure how long the ordering was open when I ordered my last bag. I set my alarm and got up at 12:00am pacific time. Paypal buttons were not up yet, but I did get it in the morning.

He is also good about anything special you want. I wanted the side pockets left off of my large bag. Not only did he make it that way, he charged me less! Sandra (where has she been?) got one specially made too. If you look on his site, you will see that he made a bag for someone out of an old golf bag.

Sandra checking in. :D

I got my new bike, got it all equipped and then life got in the way and I haven't gotten back to riding like I should.

I miss it and I enjoy reading here when I have time occasionally.
