To do that, its a backpack on the road bike or a custom "side-bag" on the recumbent. Get the smallest physical laptop that you can get away with and have monitors/etc at both destinations. And protect the laptop with a case if possible - mine's survived a car crash already. | |

For some people there is no good option but for many a different shape of pannier will work. (And an extended bike rack is great, on my upright I never strike my panniers, even when they are quite big, due to the design of the rack.) | |
