- Left side bucket is from cheese and not cat litter, it's about 1/3rd smaller than an actual Tidy Cat bucket.
- Left side bucket has clothes, lunch, reading material, random other bits. It's usually 2/3-3/4 full.
- Right side pannier has lock, jacket, and bungee cords, but is mostly empty.
- Tools and tubes go in the frame bag.
The extra room is for when Mrs. A drops the "can you go to $STORE and get @ITEMS?" message ... or when I find something interesting on the side of the road... or when I need to carry a computer because I'm on-call.
If I need more room, I go home and get the Bakfiets out.
