this looks like a good alternative to wearing a backpack to carry around all the trivial little things such as: house keys, cellphone, water bottle, etc etc

That is awsome looking. Is it padded so it can be used as a seat if it is not full of crap.

yup, it doubles as a seat

I've had this for about 4 months now. Works great when you need extra space and does not look like it is there when folded up. I use it mainly for carrying tennis shoes (size 9) back and forth. It is a little bit of a hassle to unzip two zippers to use it and then two zippers to fold it back. For my lunch and tennis shirts and tennis rack, I mounted a tennis rack cover to the side of my bike (lost one foot peg to do it). The tennis racket cover is just one simple zipper so I use it more. Picture of mine is here (http://onthewebsite.com/mc/windscreen/orig_windscreen_from_back_to_front.JPG). The pics shows it much lighter color than it really is. The black has faded some over the months. You can also see the tennis racket cover if you go up a dir and down to tennis.

That is a very cool idea. A built in tail bag.

That's awesome, I've never seen that before. Is there anything similar to this, or are Cycle Guys the only ones that make something like this?

Has anyone found any good deals on the hard top bookbags?

Does this attach to the seat or does it replace the seat.

It has velco straps that go arond/under the seat.

On another subject, I checked out your GPS/radar dir and am very interested in using the ziplock bags for GPS. I currently have a Garmin GPS V (water resistant) mounted, but it is older technology. I have a Garmin C580 in my Jeep, which I would like to use on the bike. It's more user friendly to my older eyes! How exactly did you use the ziplock bags?

Thanks

man that is sweeet

Sam - not ziplock, but my mother-in-law is taking my garage door opener home with her today to vacuum-seal it in one of the plastic bags, and then I'm going to find somewhere to mount it on the bike, as our wire-it-into-the-high-beam-switch method isn't working - we've burned up 2 remotes that way so far :(

I have added this, and I like it. :thumbup:

I put it in the bag with the cords on the open side and then used clear packing tape to tape it closed.
