Where I like fanny packs for hiking, cross county skiing, snowshoeing, I am upright. If I am leaning forward more like my posture on a bike, I would not want a tight belt strap around my stomach.

I think that the really skinny people are more inclined to like a fanny pack on a bike. The friend of mine that always used one, he was pretty skinny.
