Had a question for the group. How do you carry your snacks,cell phones, etc. on the trikes. I am very new to trikes and the three back pockets just don't cut it. I am going to try a long ride this weekend and the best I can come up with is a tie on cloth nail bag from a local hardware store tied behind the seat. I want to be able to reach the stuff while riding . I have two bottle cages so I think I am ok there. Any ideas? Thanks in advance. Tim

plenty of stuff available to carry gear on trikes, including full racks and panniers. check out the hostel shoppe.

Some people use a fanny bag. I just wear jeans and tops with pockets and a rear rack bag with pockets (more awkward but accessible) and hang my cell off my belt.

how about tying a back pack on to the back of your trike.....it's not rocket science.

I bought a fishing vest to wear while riding a trike. It has all kinds of pockets for storing things, and you can reach stuff while peddling.

A rear rack bag and a Norback frame pack on the boom from Fastback Designs. This little bag holds lots of stuff and you can reach right in for snacks, phone, etc. while seated.
