        @Graeme:

        Or @Snowy could move to Melbourne, where there's less rain! 😛

        not what i last heard, given there can be four seasons in a day! come to WA, it's mostly dry. (and isolated)

              You're up @Graeme. Order placed.

              (Got in black in Australia, was $120 cheaper, and has a 100 day return policy)

                Sounds like you went shopping at Rushfaster…

                I'm leaning towards a Defy Verbockel at the moment. They're probably the ugliest rucksack in the world, but they're about the right size, and a simple sort of design. It doesn't have a sternum strap, but I think that I could fit one.

                I actually prefer the Lug, but it's probably a bit too small.

                The Makr Flap Rucksack looks nice, and is tempting. There's no provision for a sternum strap, and that might be a deal-breaker for on a bike.

                The Modern Industry Drive is one of my favourites, but is too small. However, I did ask about the now-discontinued Faraday, and apparently a new version is coming in August if all goes to plan.

                I also really like the Acronym 3A 9TS. I think that the size (approx 40 x 30 x 20 cm) could work as a small carry on, particularly with packing cubes and careful loading. But I'm not sure how comfortable it'll be to carry with a full load, or how stable it'd be on a motorbike.

                    That acronym is sweet. I wonder if bagjack make a cheaper rendition.

                    Think it, be it.

                        @Snowy I'm disappointed with you! Perhaps order the Mission Workshop and see if you can make it work.

                        Bag shopping for me is waiting until I get settled.

                          Going to re-think for a while before pulling the trigger again. Need to get this big guy back to rushfaster before I won't be able to return it :).

                            That Acronym tote bag is on eBay if anyone wants it.

                                  After all the research and deliberation, I went with the Goruck GR1

                                  I'm a sucker for accessories, so once I'd added a few choice extras to my basket the price started to climb and then I realised that it was cheaper to
                                  buy the bundled GR1 Rucking Kit [emoji3]Having saved some money there I felt I could justify a few other bits, all of which pushed the total high enough that I qualified for free international shipping [emoji106]

                                      @Snowy I've just taken advantage of the Defy sale to cop a bag.

                                      Your turn, again. 😉

                                      Topo Designs have just unveiled the Flap Pack, which might work for you. It's about the right size, and Cordura with a tarp lining, so it should be waterproof. No padded laptop compartment, unfortunately.
