Are you tired of trying to lug your books to school on your bike? Messenger bags and backpacks were not well-designed for bicycle travel, making it difficult to carry your books.
For example, messenger bags that sling across your shoulder and sit against your bike are always sliding off. Backpacks are better, but they are built to distribute the weight evenly when you walk. When bicycling, your body is in a whole different position. These backpacks can cause strain to the back.
The new Bicycle Book Bag completely solves these problems with a smart design. This backpack will hold all your books and let you carry them comfortably while you ride.
The comfort comes from the special straps that fasten across your chest and across your waist. This makes sure that weight is evenly carried across your whole back. Best of all, the bag and its contents are firmly held in place and will not slide around.
Just in time for school, the Bicycle Book Bag is available at an outdoor store near you.
What evidence could the author include to support the claim that wearing a regular backpack or bicycle is bad for the back?

• Data that show how many kids carry backpacks
• Testimony from a doctor who treats back problems
• A poll that asks what book bags kids use on their bike
• Examples of book bags that attach to the bike itself
