So you're pumped up about going on your first camping trip via your bicycle, but are you sure that you're ready to fall asleep outdoors? As you can already guess, a bicycle sleeping bag is transported via your bicycle. It usually comes in a set along with a bicycle tent. Before you get overexcited and randomly buy the first sleeping bag you come across, there are three things you need to first keep in mind.
Different Bags for Different Environments
First of all, do your research and find out the environment that you will be sleeping in. If you will be sleeping in hot weather, happily plunk down some money in exchange for a cheap bag that is lightweight but comfortable. However, do take caution if you will be travelling somewhere cold, especially if you do so during winter. In those weather conditions, your best option would be to invest in a generously padded sleeping bag specially designed to withstand harsh weather conditions as the last thing you would want to happen is to fall sick in the middle of your trip.
Your Bag Size and Weight
Secondly, carefully consider the size of your bag in relation to the size of your bicycle. Ideally, you should be able to stuff your bag into a pannier and be on your way. Otherwise, you should be able to fold your bicycle bag into a compact size before tying it down to the rear end of your bike. If the bag is very padded, it will also be very bulky so do your best to reach a reasonable compromise. Do also consider that a it shouldn't be so heavy until it becomes challenging to ride with it.
Will It Dry?
Thirdly, find out how your chosen sleeping bag will react when it comes into contact with water. We advise that you opt for synthetic bags as the surfaces rapidly dries up after getting wet. The downside to getting synthetic sleeping bags is that they tend to come in larger sizes, but it sure beats trying to fall asleep in a wet sleeping bag.

Riding Your Bike This Spring Can Help The Environment – And Your Weight
As spring approaches rapidly, it is important to remember one of the best things about nice weather is that the outdoors is no longer a cold, windy burden. Rather, as we enter the new season, we should look at the outdoors as our destination. Particularly those who want to lose a bit of weight, the outdoors may actually be a saving grace. Particularly with an environment in crisis, who wouldn’t want to spend as much time in it as possible?
Imagine, however, that you could at the same time enjoy the environment and help to save it, all while exercising and helping to stay in shape. No, you don’t need to be superman. Such a feat can be accomplished by changing your daily commuter routine from a car to a bicycle. Granted, you may have to leave a bit sooner than you would with your car, but at the end of the day (or week), you will save yourself loads of cash on gas and gain that much back in exercise. There are plenty of kinds of bikes out there, however, and prices will vary. As such, it is important to know which bike is best for us when we go shopping for one.
The types of bikes for mainstream consumers include mountain bikes, touring bikes, and cruiser bikes. The differences between them are barely recognizable to the untrained eye, but many times it can mean the difference between a $150 and $500 bike. Brand recognition also plays a large part in the price of bikes, so if you are a bargain shopper it is important to not only seek out the right type, but also the right brand, of bike. Mountain bikes are best for those who aren’t traveling a very far distance or those who have to traverse harder terrain, such as hills or unpaved roads. The tires are generally more treaded on these bikes to give more traction, and depending if you want all of the optional parts of these bikes they can get pretty pricey.
Touring bikes are perfect for the longer distance commuter, or those with more bags. Unlike the mountain bike, it has racks mounted on it, which allow for easy carrying of cargo such as a briefcase. The frame geometry of these bikes is specifically designed for an easy, comfortable ride wherever you are traveling. For those commuters who will primarily be on the paved roads and taking it easy, this should be your choice. Cruiser bicycles, similar to touring bikes, have an upright seating alignment and are meant for steady riding. These bikes actually served as an inspiration for mountain bikes and, since their decline after the 1950’s, have grown more popular – and more affordable – since the 1990’s.
The next time you are sitting in traffic while you commute, thinking to yourself that you should be exercising, imagine that you could be solving both problems in one easy step. Riding a bicycle may not have been the first idea to cross your mind, but once you try it out, it will likely be your last. Saving the environment as well as exercising is a deal in itself that nobody else could bargain for.

Which bicycle pannier/bag is better?
The Ortlieb Back Roller Classic or the Topeak Pannier Dry Bag?
I can get both for about the same price which is a 100 for a set of rear panniers. Eventually I want to use them for a long distance tour along the west coast.
I have had better luck with the Ortlieb Back Roller Classic, the last Topeak I had tore at the edges, which wasnt very convientent.
Plus, I like the colors on the Ortlieb, but thats a personal choice.
