I like bags that attach with leather straps. They will last a long time and when they need to be replaced, no problem, just find any strap of about the same size. Not true of some plastic bracket specific to a bag that may have been discontinued for years. Thanks for sharing, Jack A great looking bag on a great looking bike.

Like Louisville and your joint, I guess all these river towns have mysterious, path-laden areas. The jump area looked particularly, but indeed the LHT would be a bit questionable. Enjoy the bag. My RBW banana bag instructions are to put the buckles inside of the bag, and that was by far the best route. It gave a snugger fit without the extra slack. I love the side trails.
