I have never pinned mine, do I need too?  :D


Depends on the $ of your groceries I guess Steve...  ;)

<sigh of relief> I'm alright then! my cameras, lenses and lighting I haul are worth far more than my bike on the used market and no pins, ever  =)

I've done this on my bicycle but I wouldn't dream of doing on my motorcycle. Sorry, that's just stupid.

OK.   I should leave it alone, but I can't.  Exactly what's so stupid about carrying a light grocery bag on your wrist? :)

I do remember going to grocery store on my bicycle one Sunday morning to get donuts as a treat for the family.  Sure enough, the plastic bag swung into the front spokes when I grabbed brakes and broke the bags open right onto the street.  Wasted bakery and nearly ate some curb.  dumb, dumb...

There you go, there's a right way and then there's a wrong way.    :o

Good idea using plastic. Probably had troubles balancing a paper bag on the tank
