I’m not a fan of the phrase, “I bought the bag.” I here it quite a bit and it never fails to grate on me a bit, but hey, it’s a lot better than some other things one could say I guess.
So why am I mentioning this? Mostly because I bought the bag.
Of course I’m not saying I agree with anything or subscribed to a concept as is usually meant by that statement. No, I actually bought the bag.
It’s a Sackville Large Saddlebag sold by Rivendell Bicycle Works. It’s a big friggin bag!

According to Rivendell it’s:
Approximately 17.25″ wide, 8.5″ tall and 13″ deep.
If I lose a few pounds I can probably live in it. 🙂
So it’s been quite a busy couple of days shopping-wise. I’ve ordered the trailer for my Bike Friday TravelCase and now a big honking bag. I agonized over both purchases for an appropriate amount of time so I’m unlikely to suffer much buyer’s remorse. At least I hope that’s the case.
Aloha!
