a pannier is a bag, usually rectangle and flat, that sits to one or boths sides of a bicycle wheel on rack that it made to have that bag attach to it. They are great for carrying work clothes and books/laptops and etc.
zomg! aside from my brother (craigpost), you're probably the only person on my flist to ever talk about bikes. i'm all a-squee!
how many bikes do you have? i have a racing bike and a commuter bike. the commuter has the paniers, lights, etc. it's a 30-40 years old (my dad, grumpygranpa, gave it to me) wonderfully constructed steel frame bike.
my racer is light and very fast, but doesn't quite have the same spirit the commuter does.
i never spend enough time doing maintenance on them. particularly oiling the drivetrain. i frequent a local bike shoppe to buy parts, and occasionally they take pity on my and do some extra repair work when i don't ask for it. ^_^
