No. Backpacks, fanny packs or any kind of strap around the neck are prohibited on our rides. However, minimal gear can be carried in pommel bags for short duration rides or saddle bags for longer duration rides.

Pommel bags have two pockets that each measure 4 inches wide by 6 inches tall by 2 inches deep. They sit over the horn of the saddle and are perfect for a water bottle, keys and a wallet. Saddle bags have two pockets that each measure 12 inches wide by 12 inches tall by 4 inches deep. They are attached to the back of the saddle and are perfect for a lunch, a first aid kit or toiletry bag, an extra water bottle or a camera. Extra jackets can be tied to the back of the saddle.
