How old are you?
51

How much would you spend on a bike bag (of reasonable quality)?
$200 for waterproof (I'm in the Pacific Northwest)

What are the sort of items do you carry daily or would you like to carry?
Towel, work clothes, deoderant

What is your weekly work clothing consumption (e.g shirt every day, two days etc.)?
Daily shirt, every other day pants, every day undergarments

If you currently carry stuff to work what is your preferred method?
Axiom Panniers

Do you have storage available to you at work?
Sort of. I keep my bike in my office, panniers stay on.

Do you have large issues with your current luggage system (if you are using one)?
Sometimes. They're not waterproof, though they're advertised as such.

What sort of things do you look for in luggage systems that you will use whilst riding you bike?
Waterproof. It's kind of a big deal in the Pacific Northwest.

Does weather affect how you ride to work?
Absolutely. Ice with slush on top is unreasonable to ride on. (I'm not running spiked tires.)
When the wind blows hard, loads of tree branches fall on the unlighted trail. It's dangerous, especially in the dark when it's raining.

My commute is around 12 miles each way, fairly hilly. We don't have showers at work, I bought a membership at a gym about two blocks from the office. It'll be a bigger deal when the weather warms up.
