I am going to start commuting to work. The only thing I have is my laptop backpack and I thought it would be easy enough to throw it on the rack with a bungee and go. It seemed like this would be good for that purpose. I really don't need anything for groceries or heavy touring. I just remembered that I had a Blackburn rack from a bike I flipped out in the garage. I think I will jsut use that one as it's free.
