Yes, I liked it and look forward to going back. If things work out I might be doing a tour between Gdansk (Poland) and Vienna (Austria) next year. Last year's tour was limited to the extreme north-east (entering at the Lithuanian border and staying pretty close to the Kaliningrad (Russian) border all the way to Gdansk) so it would be interesting to see a larger part of the country.

I have lots of small items that I want easy access to and ability to remove from the bike easily when I'm not near it: Money, camera, keys, tickets, passport and so on. I also find it very convenient on local rides so it stays on almost always.
