Used these for travelling across state/country on my bike. Now, they are utilized as glorified grocery bags until I am able to do another long distance bike trip. I throw one or two on my bike, ride to the grocery store, buy what I need and load them up and ride home. I was fortunate before to live in a town with a free bus system. What striked me as odd were even with an annual free bus people who lived only a mile away would still drive to work. Even in sub-zero temperatures it took longer to warm up your car than it would to take the bus to work?
My car is going to stay in Colorado for visiting my son. I don't know where I will work in my new town yet, but I will have my motorcycle, bicycle and already know the bus routes. I'm hoping riding the motorcycle is a rare occasion, but we will see.
