For touring I like Ortlieb panniers because they are waterproof. I also love my Candy Bar bag from Rivendell for a handlebar bag.
    I use the Banana Bag and the small handlebar bag from Gilles Berthould for most of my rides. I keep my jacket and some extra food in the BB and tools, food and drugs in the GB. I prefer the GB bag to the candy bar bag because it doesn't sway as much. I have the candy bar on the stoker bars on the tandem

    I have a Hoss on my commute bike. You can pack for a small family in that thing!

    Does the banana bag also strap on without extra fixtures?

    Yes. Normally I use the bag loops on my Brooks saddle and then attach to the seatpost. But if I put it on my mountain bike, I use the saddle rails and seat post. It attaches with things that look like a belt buckle.

    Good. Oddly enough the ability to strap on w/o all sorts of attachments means almost more to me than anything else right now! Plus the fact that they're so pretty, of course!
