Arkel Panniers

Touring Series: Exploring the world is what it's all about. From our own backyards to the deepest regions of the Earth. Touring is about discovering what's out there, and what's inside us. This series is about moving around; around your city or around our pebble in the sky.  Check out their full line of panniers.

RT- 60 Pannier .  At last a truly recumbent-specific set of panniers. The horizontal design takes full advantage of the space available on a recumbent with a forward slant to cradle the shape of the back of the seat. These panniers are not as high as others since many recumbents use smaller size wheels - ground clearance will never be a problem. These panniers are definitively big enough for touring yet the removable pockets also mean that you can use them for everyday commuting without too much bulk. Check all the features of those panniers - it's a refreshing break for recumbent owners tired of settling for a compromise. Really neat!

Arkel has provided the RT-60 Panniers for our Tour. Please show them some love and check out all their products.

FutureMan

Futureman From Bela Fleck and the Flecktones has been a good friend for over 25 years. It has been a pleasure working with him on various projects throughout the years. The Pedal With Purpose Tour "06 is no different. To have his support in this project means a ton personally but also will help with the overall goal of raising funds for the High Sierra Foundation's Katrina Relief Fund. I have had the opportunity to work with Futch on his Circle of Harmony Project and this project is the first humanitarian outreach for the Circle. So, as you can see things really are related. Futch is hosting and performing in the Kickoff Fundraising Event for Pedal with Purpose Tour.
