The 7am ferry ramp in Seattle taught me a better way to carry my lunch

I commute from Bainbridge and that first steep push up from the terminal was killing me. Last Tuesday I watched this guy zip past with a front basket and a bungee net holding his whole backpack, no sweat. I tried it with a $12 net from a bike shop on 4th Ave and now my back stays dry even on the uphill. Anyone else ditch their backpack for a front rack setup on hill-heavy routes?

Shit, I always figured racks were for old folks but that front basket setup makes total sense now.
