I need a seat bag like that

It's Detours Bag. I bought it at REI. Jeff has a larger one. The clamps are the same, so they are interchangeable on our bikes.

I don't typically use such a large seat bag, but that picture was taken on a recent weeklong bike trip. I like having a slightly larger bag such as that for a bike trip, so I can carry a vest or armwarmers, and extra tube and more food than I'd normally carry (since we were way out in the boonies.)

I'm fairly impressed with the construction. The only drawback is that I don't think they will work well unless you have 4-6 inches or more of seatpost showing. You need the bag up high enough that it won't slump into your rear tire when going over bumps or when heavily loaded.

I just discovered they aren't meant for carbon seatposts either. Rats.

Is Knot really tall or are the rest of you just vertically challenged?

I dye my hair since I started finding grey at 19! It is a darker golden blond and prettier than my natural ash blonde. I am 26 and people other than my hairdresser have noticed in the grey in the last couple years. With my fair skin I think it would look terrible if I let it take over. My father is handsome with his full head of silver and tanner skin.

I have very fair skin and my silver looks great mixed in with my natural medium ash blonde hair. Skip any eye makeup and just wear a barely-there touch of lipstick and rouge, and it looks wonderful! Go with your fair complexion and make the most of it.

Knott is 5'8" I'm 5"1" so yes, a bit of a short crowd.

I think gray hair looks cool. I just got my hair cut and mine stands out more when it's short.

Torrilin, my hair sounds like yours, long, straight,and no bangs to get in my face.
My daughter talked me into a shoulder length-layer and I found it cute but styling it took too much time, ended in my face -ugh, and I burned my hair from hot styling. I then took the easy way out and had a perm and that has now grown out. My natural brown hair is mostly grey that I dye. One of the -- of mature age. I always ride with a pony, but aka the suggestion of women in this forum tame it with more than one band which really keeps my hair out of the vision of my mirror when I ride.

I got the haircut, by the way. It's great. Kind of Geena Davis-y but shorter. Sort of (mostly) looks like this except maybe a little more 20's bob thing going...:

CUTE!! It's amazing how a good haircut can change how your hair falls. Do you like it?
