You're talking about cobrabyte's bike, right? That's an old Eclipse, I believe. It originally came with bungie-like cords which were supposed to run from eyelets on the bottom of the bag down to the DOs. Maybe cb's bike has no eyelets or other attachment points on the DOs.

Great pics Bryce. that bike is even better looking moving than sitting still. Didn't knew AZ did longsleeve jersey's though, but then again, my view of the US is based on ride pics of members here, 9gag, HBO shows and clips on facebook of republican morons saying dumb things on record which make us libral Euroboys laugh.

WV is not flat..
That looks like Shepherdstown WV. Near my stomping grounds. Great road riding in that area and the canal is not bad either. There is a great little pub in town called the Blue Moon in case you are thirsty the next time. Thanks for passing through!

Thanks, man! I'd say that your view of the US is about spot on then.
That was the only time that I have worn winter gear, I was definitely grateful for DD to lend it to me for the day. I think it was about 40F or 50F during the ride. I'm sure you think that type of weather is just peachy though
And it is worth noting, ****** kicks 9gag's ***.

That's what I thought with mine, and come to think of it, my bag had a couple of elastics which stretched down to the front axle, but even with them attached, somehow the bag shook itself loose and almost caused an accident. Plus, there was a more recent incident which involved the wife of a friend of mine, and she took a nasty tumble off her Gunnar, and we were trying to work out what went wrong and after taking the (undamaged) bike for a ride, I came to the conclusion that the prime cause might have been the fact that the had a handlebar-bag on the bike, which tended to make it unstable. (It was a "twitchy" ride anyway, and the h/b bag didn't improve things!) I hate having bags on the handlebars for that very reason.

This past fall, all of my cousins and their families had a really, really nice day at a pumpkin patch. The circumstances were sad, but I think we all had a day that could be called perfect. I won't post their pictures, but their were a TON of kids, the new generation is getting big!
My wife, daughter and myself. These steps were in the middle of a corn maze.

Well I've none of me on my old bike, as I only ride that 'Billy no mates'. So here's one of me racing in the mid 70's
Me up front on my old Reg Barnett, wheels were given to me by Falcon pro Nigel Dean.
And here's my only old road bike.
Still racing in the over 50s and now I'm the chairman of our club!
And here's a blurry picture of me just about to start this summer just gone.

Awesome Chilipapa - that's inspirational. I've never lived where there was a lot of racing so have to create it in my own mind while training.

Yes, the lottery style entry for 2013 is a real bummer. If I wait 4 years I can get in on the "over 60" clause. That is if they don't change the rules again!
