If you already have a pocket why not just use ziplock bags?

Re: The Perfect Bike Packing Bike
Must have the ability to easily run a rohloff hub for me, best cycling investment I've ever made. Also no silly bottom bracket ideas. Something like the ecr but with through axels, rohloff, dynamo hub and an ebb for an easy life. The tumbleweed looks good but it's getting into jones money.

Even worse is kipping in a semi crap spot when you passed somewhere which retrospectively was perfect five miles back.

Re: What seat pack for small sized hardtail frame?
A porcelain rocket Albert would fit, if you can get hold if one. Expensive but good quality kit. Another option might be a carridice saddle bag,some of the mounting options sit quiet high, I have a low saddle camper and it holds loads of kit.

Re: Which maps on an Etrex?
I think they would be fine, i copied my card to a virtual USB drive as suggested in this thread and all is working great in basecamp and on my Garmin 810, perhaps you could borrow a card and checkMikeW wrote:Would this mapping be OK on a garmin touring?

Re: Which maps on an Etrex?
Just spend £29 on this sd card. Pop it in the back of your Etrex and enjoy 1:50K OS mapping of the entire UK ... it's that simple. http://www.ioffer.com/i/gb-discoverer-1-50k-full-coverage-v4-map-on-micro-sd-613393020 Will this work on an Oregon 600?

Give me a shout if you don't like the Schnozzle,I use a tube thing which connects to an exped drybag. Pain in the arse, the Schnozzle looks like the perfect solution.
