Bicycle Saddle Bags (Panniers) - New Page

After my the last page I wrote on Bike Trailers I thought I should also give my 2 cents on panniers as well.

I should note that during my 2002 bicycle trip I started off with just a trailer and a small accessory bag strapped to the frame on the back of my bike, but in Ottawa I borrowed some panniers for additional storage.

So my point?

If you are planning on doing a long distance bicycle touring trip, I recommend using a bike trailer, but if you need extra storage, by all means use a set of panniers. Just remember to balance the weighting between the two sides of the bike.
