Random thought for the day

At my age and with my knees shorts are probably against several city or county ordinances.

I'm sure it would startle the horses and frighten the children.

They're not a good look for me.

Thank you for the discretion

And your point is?

I'd rather wear cargo pants than a cross-body bag.

Have several myself…. My white legs might scare children too….

A man purse indeed.

I got mine in Thailand for $10. Lasted a few years now. Keeps your items safe in locations where you need to have things in front of you and you don't have to rummage in your pockets for you wallet or your phone. The thing you might wear on yourt belt can obstruct access to your pocket and you don't want to reveal that area of your body to public scrutiny whilst accessing your wallet.

I carry my 8" iPad air, wallet, and cellphone in the three separate vertical load compartments. It also carries a pen and spares for my hearing aids and one or two other minor items.

I don't use it on the Spyder, but for everywhere else, I can grab it and go without worrying about trying to store everything in pant pockets. My keys clip to it.

I like to travel light, wallet, keys, and my phone. They all fit in my pockets, and I don't have to worry about the possibility of forgetting my carry-on luggage.

You get used to the man purse type thing. It’s safer in some parts of the world as you can access things with your eyes to the front. With a 1 to 1.5 inch wide strap made from a car seat belt grade material, it’s a secure practical item and not a fashion statement. It carries your passport too. Much harder to pick pocket from than items in your pockets, especially in crowded areas.

If you look at men in Asia, the Middle East or Europe, the use of the wide strap man purse type item, made from sturdy textile material like a motorcycle jacket is common. The material is often incorporating the same waterproof 3M membrane for keeping your items dry in torrential rain is a must, certainly in Asia.

I understand not forgetting things, but after a while you get used to knowing quickly when you don’t feel the presence of it in front of you, it becomes instinctive.
