**CLAIMED** Blue Panniers Available - No Charge

[MikeDH]

I have a pair of blue panniers from my first TTSE, which I totaled some time ago, that were off the bike at the time. They are in excellent condition. I have a key for them. Anyone in the Washington DC area who would like to meet me at a central location to take delivery is welcome to them. I have no need for them (my replacement TTSE is silver) and I've received some valuable advice from this forum, so just trying to give something back.

Surely SOMEONE on this forum will help a guy out and get these out of his garage for him.  Personally I think you should make them available for at least $50 each and whatever the real shipping cost would be if someone wants them shipped.  You've made the forum members an unbelievable offer and I wish you well sir. 
Ride safe,

What a generous offer! If I lived within a days ride of you, I would take you up on your offer in a heartbeat. Pity you didn't live in California.

Hi MikeDH,

A very generous offer indeed !

If none of our fellow Trophy Owners take up the offer,
you might consider reaching out to our Sprint GT friends
who have the same Panniers 

Cheers

I would be interested. I live in western Pennsylvania near Pittsburgh , which is only about four hours from DC. I am on the West coast right now and won't be back until June 12th. After that I can arrange to come down & pick them up. Will this work?

Tenequip - I got a couple of responses but not from anyone in the area. So contact me when you get back, and if no one else has claimed them, I'd be happy to meet you. Perhaps around Harper's Ferry, which would cut off some of your trip from Pittsburg and give me a good excuse to put some miles on the bike. Send me a PM when you're back, since I don't get on these boards as often as I used to.

Thanks to the others for the kind words, and to Coconut for the great suggestion, which I will keep in mind if no TTSE owner takes the panniers.

MikeDH,

Solid offer!  Love when people pay it forward.  I sent you a PM.

The panniers have been claimed by a forum member who can take delivery here in the DC area, so I modified the subject line of my original post to reflect that. Thanks to all who responded.
