    Default How do you ladies carry all of your stuff?

    How do you carry all of your items that would normally be in a purse? Do you just stuff the essentials in your pockets or is there a good alternative. In the past, I've used a fanny pack but my daughter has informed me that isn't a cool thing to do anymore.

    Thanks in advance for any suggestions.

    I am amazed that when we ride - somehow my wife can make due with miniature purse about 1/10th of the size as normal purse. that one goes in the rear trunk in the extra space available there.. no doubt what she considers absolutely necessary is a lot less than rides in her daily "suitcase"

    I have a small leather pouch that resembles a fanny pack but clips onto my belt loops. Vendors at bike events sometimes have them and some bike shops do too. I have trimmed down my contents to the point that this has become my everyday purse as well.

    My wife uses the same type. Not a fanny pack but small purse/wallet type that has 2 latches the she hooks through her belt loops. Ill see if I can find a link of one similar. I believe she found it at one of the motorcycle apparel shops we stoped by one day.

    Found it. The one in the link below is almost identical to the one my wife uses. Lets her keep all of the essentials that she like to carry and it give her a way to keep stuff out of her pockets.

    Check out this item I found on eBay: http://pages.ebay.com/link/?nav=item...727572&alt=web

    This is what my wife uses when we ride:

    She gets them on closeouts at REI for as low as $9.00. The only problem she had was sometimes the credit card slots aren't the correct size. Maybe that's why they were on closeout.

    Default mini purse

    I too use a small bag with double clips on my belt loops. I got one that is made of deer skin and very soft. A couple of other ladies we ride with have the same type that they ordered online.

    Default Fanny Pack

    I use a leather fanny pack. I carry it like a purse over my shoulder when I am off my Spyder. Otherwise I just stuff it in my frunk, and if I don't have enough room in my frunk then I always have the option to strap the fanny pack on. It works great for me. I also have a cell phone wallet case that I keep all the essentials in .......debit card, credit card, oh and drivers license too.

    I use pockets, and with my motorcycle jackets, there are extra pockets. I have a credit card in one, and that usually covers everything I need.

    I have a "travel" purse that I keep in my trunk with everything else I usually have in my other purses. I don't carry it unless I'm going to be away from the Spyder for a while.

    Default Belt Clip Purse

    This is what I use, fits my cell phone, ID, credit card, chapstick and a little bit of money. Everything else goes in my big purse in the frunk.

    I was thinking of getting one of the frunk liners that I saw spydersisters? advertise on ebay.. like a jewellery organizer that goes on the inside of the lid.

    I have spyder pockets on the lid of my frunk and they work great. Love them. I have quite a bit of stuff tucked into mine. Only fits smaller items.

    Well damn! I hadn't thought about that at all.

    Mrs. and I will be picking up the 2014 RT LTD in Greenville in the spring to tour the county a bit. I guess I better buy a trailer.

    Until my bride got her own ride, 2010 wing/motortrike, I wore overalls with lots of pockets and a safari vest with bird bag attached to back. I was her pack mule! Well she got the Wing and had all kinds of room, for a little while! Now she pulls a trailer! Geeze!!!
