Cute dog.

I've been known to put my mum's bichon into my basket before now although I'm not quite sure how much she enjoys it. I do though

I'm packed!

Well, I was cycle-camping the End-to-End. This is at Ballachulish Bridge between Glencoe and Fort William. Since changed the rear panniers for Ortlieb waterproof ones. They're great - really are waterproof - but obviously don't have the external pockets and this disappoints an obsessive-compulsive packing organiser!

Ahem - the yellows don't match and the pedal is not vertical. Ooops that blue bottle is no-no too ... its France you off to, let's have some style

Lovely pic of the Motherland in the background!

If my Brooks saddle has no loops on the back, are there any adapter type thingummybobs that will achieve the same and allow attachment of, say a Carradice or similar?

Ta, S & A - but hold on, please I haven't got a bag yet - I just need to do a test pack of the panniers first to see if I need more room.
I have to admit those Carradices are darned nifty, tho'but.

Agreed about the yellows and the pedals. Sorry! The blue bottle distinguishes meths from water. And it did get published in "The Loaded Touring Bicycle".

PG Tips (bags and loose) has been purchased you lucky people.
Now I must try not to drink it all while we're away next week.
Did I say that we're on holiday next week as well ?
Must have slipped my mind

Just sorting my stuff out and decided I need a bigger saddle bag for my euros, emergency croissants, etc. As someone who always lags behind I have plenty of time to admire other people's kit from an advantageous view point. I'm sure all your bottoms are lovely but it's those carradice bags that catch my eye but .... What size? Too much choice. Any recommendations? Merci bien.

I have an aero bag you can borrow if it suits. http://www.carradice.co.uk/index.php?page_id=product&under=type&product_id=31

Ping me your address and I'll post it to you.

I believe there is a Dellzeqqian law concerning saddlebags on Colnago's?
