[Yak] Front Carrier Block on a Tikit

[Shannon Blackadder]

Fantastic!  I have contacted Lane about getting one of these racks.

A few days ago I had seen a blog post about a couple touring with Bromptons
and they had a picture of the touring bag -- it looked like a great idea.  I
am looking forward to seeing your impressions of the rack and hopefully
getting one for myself.
