Ive been using these for years you can go wrong for the price and shows you don't need to spend silly money either.

I use the R15 which is perfect for a day out on the trails and a US10 which straps to it for weekends which obviously gives you 25L of storage, jeans trainers and tee shirt fit in easily with room for a few other bits n bobs and totally waterproof like shocker said the best thing about them is theway they strap on, most comfy backpack ive used, not cheap but you get what you pay for

Depends what you wanna spend Spence ?, I'd say the best over trousers are the military type, if you want a pair when im home let me know, I've also got many military camelbaks ranging from 1ltr -3ltr, but you cant put anything else in, so I just take the bladders out for other bags, they got the D rings to bungy shit to, I got gortex socks too, any military shite lads let me know & I can see what I got left over in total. My Mrs would be glad to see the back of most of it an all...

do the army do a 48" waist and 22" leg ?

Yeah..for when the slop jockies need to goto the ration store in the rain..

And i've learnt since moving to wales theres no such thing as waterproof !!

but if its splash proof and can dry quick - thats the best you can hope for

I reckon we should do some "themed" ride outs , like 60's psychedelic or 70's disco , mix it up a bit . Make it more interesting when we stop for a breakfast ! Mind you , some of the places we go , dressing like You came out of the mid 70's might actually make you blend in scratch
