I'm always on the lookout for used belts at GW and all the whats-it stores. That is pretty much what I'm after. Thanks for the pic.

I always choose to use that tried and true method of carrying belongings on a bicycle, an old wicker picnic basket. One or two elastic cables to secure it on and your ready to go! Why, it works so good supposedly you can ride in a tornado without it falling off!
