I’ve worked up enough trade for my MASI. It’s been ordered so just waiting for the call. Riding to work has been great. I can’t think of a better way to start and end the work day.

But I’m dealing with a bit of a commuters challenge:
1. The Shoulder Bag doesn’t really handle the weight of the laptop. I’m working from home a few days a week so lugging it is a necessity.
2. The Backpack is irritating the titanium plate on my collar bone.

So if anybody has any suggestions on a superior bag (messenger, backpack or otherwise) I’m all ears.

Received this from Mr.Black. (I think the trouble in posting was due to the links) Thanks man!
“I know that they are pretty trendy but I got one because of how amazing they are. The Chrome bag has the best shoulder strap of all of the bags I have looked at when I was searching for a good bag. I had a grade 4 shoulder dislocation and my bag hasn’t bothered it one bit. Plus you can order the chrome bag for either shoulder if you want to, that way you could put it over your good shoulder. Super easy quick adjustment on the shoulder as apposed to those plastic things on the timbuk2 bags. I could really go on and on but I will stop. Little spendy but lifetime guarantee. Here are some messenger bag companies that I know of.

Hope that this helps.”
