A great alternative to a Cantel bag! Save your lunch!

A few years ago while riding the trails at DuPont State Park I lost my lunch! On a very hot day, I reached behind my back to open my Cantel bag for a sip of water, but when I put the water bottle back, I obviously didn't seal it very carefully. I didn't look either. When we stopped for lunch about three hours into our trip, I was very hungry, and I was more than a little disappointed not to find dinner in that pathetic bag of candelabra. There is no water either. I can imagine the people behind us wondering what they would find next on the trail. Going back the way we came I found everything but my little Debbie cookie and I have an idea where it ended up. There were some guilty looking tourists. My sandwich got kicked, but like I said, I ate it, I was hungry. I ride a Tucker saddle on a Paso Fino, it's such a smooth ride that I wouldn't notice if the tractor trailer unloaded from her rear end and we're covering a lot of ground. It was a painful lesson - now I don't reach for anything out of my rear pannier while riding. I was thrilled when I saw this bag by the handle! Ideal for Tucker saddles for endurance and riding. I love love love this. It goes perfectly with my phone, pocket knife, sandwich and water bottle. I bought orange which improves the visibility of my brown horses. I seriously doubt there will be any more Little Debbie cookies.
