    Not sure what to buy but need something to put my glasses, phone, wallet and keys in. I don't mind paying for something good. I have used Kriega waist packs before but they are all style and little substance; awkward to use and very little volume. Has anyone used a leg bag on a blade and are they any good?

    I use a leg bag. A bit cooler than a bum bag and not as obtrusive as a backpack. I have a Dainese one I got at their store in NYC.

    Our resident 'mature' model @PauloHRC has just bought this Givi bum pack I'm sure he'll give feedback on its ability to hold all your contents :D

    Yep...I know they hold his top set of teeth and a couple of Tena Men's so I'm sure it'd hold the keys n stuff :)

    Think I paid about 22 quid, it's a good size and is quite flat, a bit like a pastie! Good size pocket on the outside for glasses plus a pocket inside too. Has big rings on the zips so are glove friendly! Here's the actual image from 30 years ago proving I was a handsome bastard back then as I am now in my 70's;) AirBrush_20190707145033.jpg

    Did you fade the garb to make it look older?

    I asked this very same question to myself ages ago. I've got a different sized rucksacks that I use on different occasions depending what I'm carrying.
    But when I've gotten t my leathers of I use an alpinestars hip bag that I use for spare change,wallet , smokes and keys.
    It's not intrusive and fits very well.
