Hey Dave, that rack/bag combination on a Stance is pretty good, isn’t it? I unrolled one of the stowaway panniers today for the first time to hold a rain jacket (it didn’t rain, but you know what would have happened if I didn’t bring it) and it turns out to be impressively larger than I thought it was. Very handy.
Oh yeah! I can't believe how much gear/stuff/groceries etc. I can get in there. Amazing! :D
Glad to hear it's workin' out for ya mate!

We have the same Topeak trunk bag on 2 bikes. Well made, clever design, VERY handy.

Wife and I biked to Oceanside harbor today. No planned shopping but ended up with room to spare after loading the panniers with excess outerwear, take-home burritos, croissants, and fresh fish.

The sign saying "Straight from the boat" reminds me of when I lived in Horseshoe Bay, West Vancouver. Walk 2 blocks to the boats to get dinner... :cool:
 
A little cooler at 21C yesterday, so decided to do a Tour de Delta. Almost all pavement this time.



The river was amazingly quiet. No ships/boats etc. Maybe everybody had the day off...



River Road wasn't busy either...



Table for two sir?



Millennium trail...



Bit of corn coming up...





Piles of bikes locked up near a Hwy interchange and bus stop...







Water stop...

I see you're also having fun making up your own Tour de X. One advantage — besides the guaranteed win, of course: No gauntlets of crazed spectators to contend with.

Though a few adoring fans would be nice.

Got these 2 coyotes on Stage 4 of my Tour de Carlsbad, but I think they were more annoyed than anything else.

As a rock star I'm used to adoring fans. Here's mine...

Oh wait, that's a bladeless fan, not a mirror! Duh. I'm talking "fans" with our most incorrigible punster, and I think it's a mirror?? Sheesh!

Must be all the TdF-related sleep deprivation. Better start Stage 10 of the Tour de Carlsbad — from home to a hotdog at Moonlight Beach — and clear my head.

LOL! All good, and yes, I am incorrigible indeed... 😁
 
Had 80 minutes to ride this afternoon, and it was 15 miles of pure Coast Highway gold! Balmy 70°F, crystal clear air, cool sea breeze, light traffic, surprisingly few tourists.

North turnaround above Carlsbad State Beach in Carlsbad Village.

South Ponto Beach in south Carlsbad, just short of the south turnaround at La Costa Boulevard.

Between the turnarounds are 6 mi of rolling Coast Highway with wide bike lanes, few interruptions, and ocean views most of the way. Took the opportunity to test a new assist tuning — one a good bit peppier than I'm used to.

Whee doggies! Legs were feeling good, the carrot effect was in full force, and the breeze was slightly at my back. Did the whole 6 mi in ECO, mostly at 20+ mph (fast for me). The higher ECO tuning burned more battery than usual, but small price to pay for such a perfect ride!
