A lot of cyclists say backpacks are the worst. I don't quite agree. I've commuted with one. Lately, I toss my backpack into a basket I've attached to my bike, and I do prefer not wearing it.

Panniers are great for when you're riding, but carrying them off the bike is awkward, and they don't stand up well, either.
