That’s me just ordered the Arkel – TailRider 2 – Trunk Bag. Which will go well with the Arkel GT-18BP Classic – Convertible Backpack Pannier. Which I got a number of weeks back!
Testing out the Arkel GT-18BP Classic – Convertible Backpack Pannier
Well pleased with the Arkel GT-18BP Classic – Convertible Backpack Pannier. That come today, all the way from Canada.
It’s just the right size to hold my tripod, still or video camera. Plus lots of other stuff!
So I will get filming new vlogs very soon indeed!

Ordered the Arkel GT-18BP Classic – Convertible Backpack Pannier
That’s me just ordered the Arkel GT-18BP Classic – Convertible Backpack Pannier. Since my current panniers bags, that I got back in 2009. For during the End to End cycle (JOGLE), don’t fit on pannier rack on the E-Bike, that I’ve been using!
I went for this pannier, since it can also be used has an backpack. So I can take it, with me. While the bike is safely locked up!
Also means, I can start to take my tripod and camera gear with me again on cycles! So that means, I WILL start doing vlogs again!!
Just don’t ask the cost of this bag and getting it sent over the UK…
Did my weekly shopping using me bike :)
I did my weekly shopping using just my bike today. Which may not sound very good at all, but when you take into account, it’s a 14.88 mile round trip. With a good number of hills in between my village and Stamford. Getting there is nice and easy since I had no extra weight on my bike to worry about. On the way back I did notice it just a wee bit. Bt after doing the end2end cycle the weight was nothing at all. I had at least 3 times that when doing that cycle. I used my Arkel XM45 Extreme Mountain Touring Panniers that I got for doing the end2nd cycle. Going by google I saved around £2.78, which is not bad at all. So well pleased with that. It would will soon add up.
Here all the statistics for the cycle:-
- Time: 1:06:18 (h:m:s).
- Distance: 14.88 miles.
- Avg Speed: 13.5 mph.
- Max Speed: 28.4 mph.
- Elevation Gain: 122 metres.
- Elevation Loss: 123 metres.
- Min Elevation: 27 metres.
- Max Elevation: 57 metres.
