"Excuse me, sir, may I search you bike bag?"

"Hello, hello, hello and what's this then??"

"Oh, and it's for bananas? Sure squire, I believe ya!"

Kiwi protectors to compliment the banana guard? Sorry, I lifted that from something I read on a British site. (Google "Banana Guard" and you get over 300,000 hits)
