I just ordered that man-bag type thing for under the seat tonight. I guess that officially makes me a 'Ulsissy' now.... it was so cool, though, and it did match the black bike so well. |

it did match the black bike so well. Black bike. Hmmmmmmmmm........and I was gonna be nice to you! Orange is the real color for Ulysses. The blue looks OK, but it just isn't fast enough. Man-bag? That doesn't sound like a factory part......must be aftermarket? |

Touratech has them as well, but they were almost twice as much. This one was $25 or so from Latus. (Message edited by johnboy777 on December 04, 2007) |

One of those came with my bike, so I guess that makes me a sissy as well. Mine is a proper orange bike! |

That's ok. I bought that damn handlebar bag from Touratech. ChadHargis calls it the "man purse". Sucks when you forget to strap it on and you drive off and it falls on the ground and cars run over it and crush your phone. |

If you put a set of clips on it, a strap and wear it over your shoulder... IT is a purse. And in the season of christmas cheer and political correctness... ifn you want to carry a *agBag then by allmeans. BTW you are really in trouble if you start to co-ordinate your outfits around said bag. |

Silly Bueller, everyone knows that Barricade Orange is the color of adventure, and a joule a quantity unit measuring potential energy. ~jammer

Sissies work, I am going riding now. Stove Prairie Road, near Rocky Mtn National Park. Maybe make it up to Cache de la Poudre Canyon, snow be damned. My new Avon Distanzia tires will get tested today. Pictures to follow. http://tinyurl.com/yvvw8e ~jammer |

"Sissies work, I am going riding now." I like to ride while people THINK I'm working. Damn, I DO like that Orangy color though! |

Rode that road last August. Poudre canyon also, one my all time favorites. If I didn't have the golden handcuffs at WORK I'd live in Ft. Collins'! Oh well, just grind the axe 8.5 more years then I'll ride every road in Colorado!! Oh, did I mention the micro brewery tour? |

If you liked Poudre Canyon, let me know when you are coming to Colorado next time. We use the Poudre to keep the tourists off our favorite roads. |
