Black panniers in the sun?
I thinking of buying the superblack Ortlieb panniers for my next tour!
I will be riding through extremely warm environments, will they boil/burn my stuff, ignite my gas, simply melt, or.....
Have anyone tried that scenario out???

I toured with dark panniers for many summers, and nothing ever melted, boiled, ignited, or exploded.

Out fishing with Annie on his lap, a cigar in one hand and a ginger ale in the other, watching the sunset.
