DakAL Trip Planning

[Owens]

Hi Sleddog & DakAL travellers,
For those who may not have soft bags yet, I see that Aerostich has the Ortlieb yellow waterproof saddle bags on sale for $172 with free shipping. I have used these bags for extended trips over many years and highly recommend them. As Aerostich ad reads, simplicity is often the best route to go. The infinitely adjustable broad velcro straps hold tight over the pillion part of your seat or the tail, and lower front straps keep em from flapping, along with a rear crossover strap. Aerostich says these will be the last of them.
Some of you may recall my 250L with the 5 gallon pails, yes those work good too, but they do elicit a snicker or two, as well as needing special built brackets. Looking forward to the Sept ride, seeing the old faces and meeting the new.
Dean.
