[QUOTE="skater, post: 451108, member: 19158"] My wife and I did the tour of Valley Forge on bike (there's a path around the park you can ride), and I had my camera and accessories in my usual backpack case. Not to whine, but it got old - ride a bit, stop, get off, put bike down, remove backpack, open it, get out camera, set up shot, take shot(s), return camera to bag, close bag, put bag on back, pick up bike, get back on bike... We did this with our hybrids, so no clipless pedals or anything like that, at least. My backpack has a lower strap that I usually don't use, but I did that day. In hindsight I wish we'd done two separate laps - one for riding, one for photography by foot or vehicle. But I'm big on both so others might have a different view. If it were "ride to a single destination then take pictures, then ride back," I'd probably have a better experience. The stopping and starting made both hobbies feel like a chore. [/QUOTE]
