    Hmmm. I suppose I could get it with bracket mount? My previous velcro pack snagged my cycling shorts.

    Is this the one you mean?

    Yup...that's the one! I've used that bag on my bikes for nearly 3 years now, and I'm very happy with it. It's roomy enough for all of my crap, has a little tab on it for a rear "blinky" light (I use a Planet Bike Superflash), and it's even fairly water-resistant (ridden in lots of rain, and have gotten it wet with the hose). I haven't tried the version with the mounting bracket, but I would imagine that it works just fine.

    In whatever you decide, look for things that might interfere with your legs. I have one box that has a velcro patch that scratches up my leg when I'm out of the saddle. Another one had a pocket on the side that I would change my pedal stroke to avoid, and I think that caused problems 200-miles into a 400K. Notice I said "had." I tore the pocket off, and now I love it.
    For 3 days, I get to part of a thousand other journeys.
