any suggestions for a decent bag for riding around town like to school or wherever my late-night riding binges take me?

should obviously be comfortable and designed with bikers in mind and should be able to carry a net book and a school book or two plus tools and shit

Seriously considering this one:

which i guess is the poor man's Chrome bag. But the reviews are pretty good on it and it sounds like it has the same functionality and durability as a Chrome bag.

I have that bag, been using it for 3yrs now.
Pro: comfortable, holds a lot of stuff, big
silver stripe reflects well, waterproof, compartments
are well thought out. And the #1 reason for
getting it...hardly anyone has one..perhaps
there's a reason..hmmmm
Con: tough to tighten the stabalizer
strap on the fly. The shoulder strap
can be tricky to adjust at times..
buy at worldcyclie, 15% of 1st time buyer
good luck

www.subversivecycling.com really well made bike bags, very similar to chrome but he puts a lot of extra pockets and little attachments, that end up being incredibly helpful...plus theyre cheaper than chrome (and made in here in austin :))

I really like my Bailey Works bag. I've had it for many years now and it's never let me down. It's truly waterproof and it can hold as much stuff as you can take. I think the best way to carry stuff is with a rack and panniers.
