Thanks. i'm glad to hear you say that. I've actually never considered panniers before because to me it looked like the equivalent of a fanny pack on a tourist... Way too functional and no style. Having just moved to the Boston area, i started noticing how many people had racks or racks with panniers, and the look really started to grow on me. and of course, once i tried it, there was no going back.
