This dozen (duo of sextets?) fell to their demise from my courier bag. Not one survived. As a utilitarian cyclist of 13 years, I cannot recall an incident like this. I now bring a high level of paranoia to my bag packing and check all contents three times prior to departure.

  2. I was going to suggest and egg panier or egg trunk. If it doesn't exist you should make one.
    Just did a quick search for you... sounds like you have a few options: tie them up in a plastic bag hung from the bars, pack your panier properly, split the pack, flip the pack and bungee it down to the trunk or last but not least... interestingly available from newegg:
