I say handy but I never used them. Apart from that one time in Nam ...</p> <p>Mind you, the Rohan trousers I'm wearing now have a pocket down the outside of the left leg that only makes sense when you're sitting down.</p> <p>Maybe some of those drivers who read their iPads and Kindles will cotton on to that trick. </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=10183#post-112086 Tue, 28 May 2013 10:35:38 +0000 steveo 112086@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>Isn't that fighter pilot trick, route notes etc secured to one thigh to make them easier to read. </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=10183#post-112083 Tue, 28 May 2013 10:31:42 +0000 Instography 112083@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>That's very odd.
