So I am nearly there, 3 weeks to go and I just need to get the last few things ready before I ride. Having ungraded the brakes on my bike ( a giant ocr 3), a new wheel set is in the post and some 25 tyres are somewhere ready to be fitted.

I just have one problem, I have a carradice camper longflap, huge bag, won't use half of its capacity but I got it as I may use it for longer rides in the future. Anyway I need to get a support for it. Carradice offer standard and quick release systems in two sizes. My saddle, a nice comfy wtb rocket, has no loops to attach anything to, so are there any ways around this that will fit my saddle, or should I just go for the QR system?

I'm in the same situation and some of the suggestions included attaching it to the saddle rails using cable ties or mini caribina's. You can buy saddle bag loops that can be attached to some saddles.
