Very cool; so there’s a rucksack review in there? Sorry, I just looked at the pics…and BTW, congrats on the fat-tired bike shot. That’s quite a rarity on this site!

This is a nice editorial tangent from the usual (but much appreciated) bike-oggling. I’d be happy to see CycleEXIF show more on-the-bike stories from time to time.

One word my friend . MountainSmith . Their ‘ Adventure ‘ fanny pack line . As much cubic inches as a backpack ….. without the straps digging into your shoulders , cutting off your lung capacity … placing undo stress on your shoulders and back etc . Used by every discerning Overlander .. be it bike , M/C etc . Been to Dakar and back . Plus …… they last forever ( I’ve had mine going on 20 years and with an upgrade or two its as good as a new one ) Once again ….. MountainSmith . The very best there is

More importantly, did you track down the owner of the Series 1 and make him an offer?

The question on my mind is: how sweaty do you get wearing it? I have one backpack with a meshy sling type thing between my back and the backpack, and I never get sweaty. My favorite (pretty) bag, a canvas one, and I sweat so much!
