just a quickie


went on another great bike ride today with my mom and the girls. we went 11 miles today, and started at the opposite end of the trail we'd been riding. i realized that we were pretty darn close to the end on our sunday ride... makes me wish we'd gone just a bit farther. now i need to figure out a way to bring my camera on the bike. any ideas?

so the picture of the day was a quickie of emma in her tie-dye shirt she made at school.

I have a Tamrac backpack camera case which holds my camera and an extra lens and has extra compartments for other goodies:) I picked it up at Amazon.

I was going to suggest a backpack too. I am going to buy one for me next week. I hate my canon bag it keeps falling off my shoulder. Besides I'm a backpack girl anyways! :)

how about a fanny pack - that should work and not be heavy on your back

you need a basket for the front of your bike, I have one, I love it. and my kids love putting their stuff in there too!

Rapid Strap. (http://www.blackrapid.com/) Rigged right it keeps your camera on your back, but quick to access without having to dig it out of a backpack (also, no big sweaty spot on your back!). It will hold a few extra CF cards, & a battery. I LOVE mine, and use it for weddings, and other events. If you want to try mine out (or take a look at one in person without driving to Seattle) drop me a line.

adam, that looks really handy. i'm wondering if it's hard on your shoulder at the end of the day. looks really handy!

Nope. Even with a 70-200 2.8 it's WAY better than a neck strap. (I have the Single sling). I love that I can carry a bat & spare cards. I toss a 2nd lens (if I need it) in a little Tammarac bag that velcro's/snaps on my belt. All day at the aquarium with my 28-70 2.8 and I didn't notice it at all. I was able to run down my 3 year old without it swinging around like some kind of mid-evil weapon. FB me if you want to see it!
