rather ashameably...
...no, lol. There were a few hick ups along the bike prep front as my panniers were letting me down during testing, one of the straps got caught just south of my chain guard and decided to wrap itself around my rear wheel bearing - you should have heard the almighty SNAP as bits of bungee and fastenings came spewing out the back. Had to unwrap the strap from the wheel. After a trip home from my brothers i managed to melt my waterproof trousers onto my exhaust, there isn't enough WD40 in Europe to get the plastic off.
So I have spent the past two weeks buying a pair of leathers, new boots (as the other were to big and fell off) and trying to find some metal panniers that fit my cross city. Hopefully the ones of the Terra Adventurer will match, going to find out tmrw. Heres to a new set off date, some time later this month.
Oh and I got tickets to Radiohead the sunday I was supposed to be there lol
