This is a photo we took at our warehouse team\u2019s (slightly belated) \u201cfirst-half-of-the-year\u201d get-together.<\/p>\n
There are so many different types of bags you can use while riding a bike: bags that sit in baskets or on racks, bags that attach directly to your bike, sling bags, waist bags, and so on. Maybe some people have the impression that \u201cbackpacks aren\u2019t really for cyclists.\u201d<\/p>\n
But as you can see, we actually have quite a lot of backpack users on our team. And, of course, about 90% of our staff commute by bike.<\/p>\n
Lined up from the front are the The Day Pack, Off Pack, and Packable Pack, all sitting together in our little designated bag area.<\/p>\n
I guess, at the end of the day, there\u2019s something comforting about a backpack\u2014the kind of bag that\u2019s familiar and close to everyone.<\/p>\n
That was the thought I had when I saw them all lined up like this.<\/p>\n

Also, I just think it\u2019s cute how all those little round shapes are packed so tightly together.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":48,"featured_media":182509,"template":"","better_featured_image":{"id":182509,"alt_text":"","caption":"","description":"","media_type":"image","media_details":{"width":1248,"height":1483,"file":"2026\/09\/F10276AE-996E-4F12-A96E-420AB07D3831_1_201_a.jpeg","filesize":609903,"sizes":{"medium":{"file":"F10276AE-996E-4F12-A96E-420AB07D3831_1_201_a-1077x1280.jpeg","width":1077,"height":1280,"mime-type":"image\/jpeg","filesize":194283,"source_url":"https:\/\/bluelug.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/F10276AE-996E-4F12-A96E-420AB07D3831_1_201_a-1077x1280.jpeg"},"thumbnail":{"file":"F10276AE-996E-4F12-A96E-420AB07D3831_1_201_a-646x768.jpeg","width":646,"height":768,"mime-type":"image\/jpeg","filesize":84698,"source_url":"https:\/\/bluelug.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/F10276AE-996E-4F12-A96E-420AB07D3831_1_201_a-646x768.jpeg"}},"image_meta":{"aperture":"0","credit":"","camera":"","caption":"","created_timestamp":"0","copyright":"","focal_length":"0","iso":"0","shutter_speed":"0","title":"","orientation":"1","keywords":[]}},"post":182507,"source_url":"https:\/\/bluelug.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/F10276AE-996E-4F12-A96E-420AB07D3831_1_201_a.jpeg"},"acf":{"not_to_displayed_on_top":true,"ctm-post-priority":"0"},"post-meta-fields":{"_edit_lock":["1790325128:48"],"_edit_last":["48"],"_thumbnail_id":["182509"],"not_to_displayed_on_top":["1"],"_not_to_displayed_on_top":["field_6944f0f6461a3"],"ctm-post-priority":["0"],"_ctm-post-priority":["field_6522836fa8f5e"],"pp_checklist_custom_item_jlhhonippgapjyw":["yes"],"_my_meta_value_key":["[{\"pid\":12995,\"name\":\"*BLUE
