      for bigger grocery loads, you may want to think about trying grocery bag
      panniers at some point. Jandd makes some really good ones - they're not
      cheap, but they are very strong. With 2 of these panniers and a couple
      of bungee cords and a little big of ingenuity, you wouldn't believe the
      stuff you can get onto a bike! I use them every day, because it's a
      hassle to always be open and closing bags - I like just being able to
      toss stuff in.

      thanks. i looked at grocery panniers, but they were awfully expensive. i think these will do for my modest needs for now, but i'll keep it in mind. sincerely,
      jeff

      The Jandd ones retail for about 50 bucks each, but they also sell them
      on ebay in materials that they've discontinued and I got them for about
      25 or 30 each. Also, Performance Bike sells a knock off of Jandd's bag
      for 18 bucks. I just got one for my mom and it seems like a pretty good
      bag, but not quite as sturdy as Jandd's. Once you start trying to carry
      heavy and bulky stuff, you'll realize that you need something more
      sturdy. Just remember how much money you spent on your car and then
      you'll realize that laying out a hundred bucks on bike gear makes sense
      when you would have thought nothing of paying a hundred bucks on a car
      repair.
