Road Cycling “It is by riding a bicycle that you learn the contours of a country best, since you have to sweat up the hills and coast down them. Thus you remember them as they actually are, while in a motor car only a high hill impresses you, and you have no such accurate remembrance of country you have driven through as you gain by riding a bicycle.” -- Ernest Hemingway

There's a wedge called Serfas. They make a nice big one, but check performance, because I'm almost sure I saw a large one on their website.

aww man. dont pollute your ride with an enormous seatpack. heck, I know people that do without, just stuff your jersey pockets with a tube tire levers and co2.

theres this guy I know with a beautiful six-13 with centaur...and a refrigerator-sized seatpack. needless to say, I've ribbed him quite a bit about it.

Shoot I thought that this thread was going to be about what to do about wearing underware while riding and gettin wedgies.
Actually I agree with Phatman on stuff the shirt pockets before going to the "trunk" type -I have been the carrier of alot of other peoples stuff just because. Practicing minimalist now after being abused

I have to say, I can't stand looking like I have lumps running down my back, like I have a tumor problem or something. Seat wedges keep everything nice and organized and in one place and takes that weight off your back.

I guess it's in the eye of the beholder...

I use a .5 L wedgie bag. Like Koffee said keeps everything nice and organized. 1 less thing to worry about when heading out for a ride.

I already have a small repair-pack wedge. The reason I want a big one is for longer rides, say 200k and more. I want to do the SD brevet series next year, and it makes sense to start training now...
