My wife bought me a lovely, good quality backpack a few months back that I use for work, leisure and everything in between. Has all the compartments I need and is a lovely bit of kit.
I'm looking to get myself a pannier rack sometime soon - I strongly dislike cycling with a backpack on, especially to work. Because we're currently pinching pennies, I don't want to splash out on a pannier just yet - I'd rather wait until there is a real need, especially when my wife got me this lovely big backpack especially for work kinda recently.
I've been looking at options for attaching the backpack to a rear rack - research suggests that a cargo/bungee net may be the best thing for the job. Can get one for as cheap as £6 and I've seen folks say they've lasted years. Any thoughts here on the matter? Good idea, bad idea?
