I'm ordering some Dry-Lights(Anyone from Arkel reading this? This is how "light" is spelled. In case you were wondering, skateboard is not spelled sk8bord, either. Anyway...) tomorrow. If anyone would like any other pictures of them, or the mounting, let me know. I'll also comment on them after my trip down the west coast. I'll be packing the heavier and harder gear items in my more rugged Axioms in front, with the Arkels as rear panniers with soft things like my backpacking quilt, sleep pad, some clothes, etc. They will carry all of the soft and light weight gear. Theoretically this will create a better balanced load on the bike and save some weight from carrying "regular" panniers front and rear.
