My sincere apologies to the Leighton riders that I endangered in a silly passing move this morning near the Millpoint flyover. My new (untested) crumpler bag swung out wildly as I was completing the pass and made it very unsafe. I apologised to the 2 lead riders but there was no excuse....and it won't happen again!!!

Hey Christo,
I wasn't involved but couldn't let this go thru to the keeper Well done on admitting a mistake and I hope the other riders were good about it. If only we all could put our hands up when we do the wrong thing or have a lapse in judgement. Thankx for setting a good example

hm doesn't your crumpler have a 'third leg' strap that goes across the chest and stops this sort of thing from happening? Mine does but then it's about 10 years old now.

yeah, I got that and it is over-rated. At least on the fattest one anyway.jet-ski wrote:hm doesn't your crumpler have a 'third leg' strap that goes across the chest and stops this sort of thing from happening? Mine does but then it's about 10 years old now.
My crumpler got handed to my daughter after I gave up ion it. She returned it to me some time after and it is now in the cupboard where is belongs. My $70 backpack from Wellington Surplus runs rings arund it.

you should probably put it up for sale on the marketplace, I'm sure someone would give it a home!
I have gotten a lot of use out of mine. Though when I first bought it i was given some schtick about how much I paid for it!
