    I only put on one, because I'm still thinking I may go with the Ortlieb bag on the other side. You could definitely do a second one on the other side of the rack, though--they just attach with a couple of little clamp-y bits to the outside rail of the rack.

    If you can't find them locally, they're definitely available online through a few different places. I know I've seen them from various sellers on Amazon.

    I'm glad the pictures helped!

    First Ride

    I decided on the Axiom Kootenay bags http://www.axiomgear.com/product/bag...duct.php?id=63
    They have a clip and elastic setup that is easy to put on and take off the bike. They also came with a shoulder strap, which is nice.

    I used them on my ride to work today for the first time. I'm going to reserve judgement on them until I ride on a really hot day. I felt faster this morning, but it was also my first ride on my dedicated commuter setup, which is lighter, with skinnier tires!

    My fellow bike commuters all ooh-ed and ahh-ed at my new setup. I did get teased a bit, though - the security guard at work told me I was going to get beat up, riding around on a bike with a rack! Ha.

    great idea

    with putting a different pannier on the other side. I'm pannier clueless and none of my LBS carry them . Are there ones that snap on and come off easily of an existing rack? I am probably going to go online and buy them from Amazon (at least one of the wire ones) because the milk crate idea does not look like it's going to work. It's a little sketchy at best!
