I had a good 18 mile commute this morning. Used my Carradice Barley for the first time commuting and managed to fit all my stuff in there. A nice change from panniers where I tend to bring more stuff.
Unusally, as I passed through the Air Force Academy on the Sante Fe Trail, I passed ~300 cadets running in a giant pack (consuming the entire trail, of course). Pretty neat to see, and more people than I usually encounter in a couple months of commuting.
