I don't understand why you have to put down the bike and unload everything before you're inside. Edit2add: though I do think a kick stand would be nice on tours! My main reason for avoiding them is because it's awful when they kick out while you're actually riding a bike and it's a lot of extra bits for road debris to get stuck to. I don't think they're impractical for others though. To each their own :] | |
