Side Rack Options (with pictures)

Okay Okay, I know you've all read about the different side racks for the WRR/X but I was hoping to get some input from those of you who've tried them. So here are my thoughts:
1. If i've got to run to the grocery store, I'd like to enjoy the ride along the way, take the bike and load the bags with whatever I pickup.
2. I want to keep my Buddy Pegs.
3. I need something that isn't going to interfere with... well my riding. Strap it down and it shouldn't move.

So my question to all of you is,: When it's on, is your luggage tightly secured? Is it attached so noone can unhook and walk off with your bags? Are they easy to get into? and other stuff like that...

So here is what I've found so far.

---WOLFMAN SIDE RACK---




---TCI DENALI RACK---



---TCI SEQUOIA RACK---



---DIRTBAGZ---



---HAPPY TRAILS RACK---




---EB's SIDE RACK (NO LONGER AVAILABLE)---



---AND OF COURSE, THE CUSTOM ROUTE ---



So, if anyone has any input, PLEASE POST (pictures appreciated) because I MUST find an alternative to my current setup. I'm pretty sure my WRR is planning something to get back at me...

I'm having a similar problem deciding if I want to go with a giant loop or a set of wolfman panniers. I think I've pretty much tossed the idea of hard bags due to cost.

Right now I'm leaning towards the giant loop mostly because I don't want to tote around those funny looking racks without the bags on them during hooligan rides and the like.

I hear ya. That's why I'm kinda leaning toward the Wolfman or Dirtbagz. Problem with Dirtbagz iz, you loose your buddy pegs which is a deal breaker for me unless I could modify to make it work.

I'm leaning toward the wolfman because they are the least unattractive... I know I'm shallow. I'm OK with that.

How much are you getting at the grocery store? Serious question... because you missed my favorite option, the wolfman enduro saddle bags. No racks required, can fit plenty of non-bulky food items. Also fits a 12pk. preferably the more squarish packages that beer thankfully most commonly comes in anymore over long fridge packs like crappy sodas get.

Okay, I caved guy... And gals, and ordered the wolfman side rack.

Soon enough WRR, the milk crate will come off. Thanks for everyone's comments, err well one or two of you.
